Forming students to lead with excellence in the mission of our church

The Five Marks of Mission of the Anglican Church are:

1. To proclaim the Good News of the Kingdom

2. To preach, baptise and nurture new believers

3. To respond to human need by loving service

4. To seek to transform unjust structures of society, to challenge violence of every kind and to pursue peace and reconciliation

5. To strive to safeguard the integrity of creation and sustain and renew the life of the earth

Committed to bicultural
Treaty-based relationships in a three-Tikanga context,
our graduates will be...

Growing spiritually as disciples of Jesus Christ and developing as reflective practitioners:

Kia tupu ake hei tangata tapu hei tangata whaiwhakāro.

Biblically literate through dwelling in, expounding, and integrating the Bible with confidence and insight in everyday contexts:

Kia mōhio ki te paipera.

Theological thinkers through critically reflecting upon scripture, tradition, reason and experience and engaging context with imagination and humility:

Kia kakama ki te kaupapa Atuatanga.

Bicultural partners growing in their understanding of reo and tikanga and the mana of different cultural expressions of the faith:

Kia poua hei tangata tikanga rua.
