I am delighted to welcome you to Thornleigh Salesian College. We are a Roman Catholic School with foundations in the Salesian ethos based on the values of Saint John Bosco. Our identity as a Catholic Salesian school defines our mission and we seek to provide a place where children have a HOME - a place where they belong, a SCHOOL - a place where they learn, a CHURCH - a sacred space where they can develop morally and spiritually and a PLAYGROUND - a place where they can develop relationships, enjoy life, experience culture and encounter new opportunities. Our CGS team provides excellent pastoral support focusing on students from many diverse backgrounds, supporting those students who need us. The community of our school is of paramount importance to us and is strengthened by our assemblies, prayer and Curriculum for Life programme. Our chapel is our spiritual place where our students find a sacred place where they can grow together rooted in faith. At Thornleigh Salesian College we have high aspirations for all our students, ensuring they achieve their true potential. We expect all our students to work hard, aim high and become good citizens. Our curriculum is balanced and is delivered by high quality teachers who are committed to our Catholic Salesian ethos. Additionally, we provide a caring, safe environment where our students feel they have a voice and are valued, loved and cherished. Academic success is very important for our students but we also want them to gain experiences that develop their character. Our extracurricular activities are very important to us and we pride ourselves on the excellent opportunities offered in sports, music, theatre, dance and arts. Work experience in Year 10 and Sixth Form offers our students valuable experiences outside of the classroom, providing potential pathways to future careers. Our Turing scheme offers students from all socio-economic backgrounds opportunities for international trips and has provided incredible cultural experiences, helping our young people grow and develop as individuals. In the one hundredth year of our school, we are very proud of our great traditions and of all our students past and present. We are excited for the future and our new young people who will be joining our school.
