We seek to be marked by a generosity and hospitality modelled by Jesus, and we value relationships based on respect and mutuality.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-default\">We want our students to be people who are open to the world, who value justice, truth and beauty. We want them to engage with the teaching of Jesus. We want them to prioritise relationships and to develop a deep respect and love for those who think and believe differently to them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-default\">We also want them to think critically and seriously about higher-order issues of a philosophical nature. We equip them so they are\u00a0able to dismantle and question the key belief systems that underpin our culture in order to ask and debate the \u2018big questions\u2019 in life: What constitutes the good life? Who or what am I? Who or what is God? What\u2019s wrong with the world? What will put it right? How do I know?\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-default\">Chapel services are held weekly while our Christian Development course, taught in the classroom, offers all students the opportunity to engage in healthy discussion on the Christian faith as well as \u2018big questions\u2019 about life.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>CRU groups&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many students at St Andrew\u2019s Cathedral School do choose to profess their Christian faith and we seek to provide a supportive and encouraging environment where they can mature in their faith as they travel through school. Students can join one of the many age-based CRU groups at the school and attend a Christian camp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-font-azo has-medium-font-size\"><strong>You may be interested in<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-outline is-style-outline--1\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-blue-color has-text-color\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sacs.nsw.edu.au\/middle\/beyond-the-classroom\/student-leadership\/\">Student leadership<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We seek to be marked by a generosity and hospitality modeled by Jesus, and we value relationships based on respect and mutuality.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":165,"parent":9,"menu_order":4,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"class_list":["post-77","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sacs.nsw.edu.au\/middle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/77","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sacs.nsw.edu.au\/middle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sacs.nsw.edu.au\/middle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sacs.nsw.edu.au\/middle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sacs.nsw.edu.au\/middle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=77"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/www.sacs.nsw.edu.au\/middle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/77\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":663,"href":"https:\/\/www.sacs.nsw.edu.au\/middle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/77\/revisions\/663"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sacs.nsw.edu.au\/middle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/9"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sacs.nsw.edu.au\/middle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/165"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sacs.nsw.edu.au\/middle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=77"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
