Schools

We have responsibility for over 100 Mary Ward Loreto schools. The charism of Mary Ward and Ignatian spirituality is actively promoted as part of the formation of students, teachers and parents. JPIC and networking with our IBVM NGO representative continue to be actviely promoted in the schools.

Mary Ward Schools Compass

A Mary Ward school today affirms the centrality of the person of Jesus.
His gospel and our particular charism offer to education a profound way of being,
acting as a positive force for transformation of lives.
Building on the foundation of our God-given charism,
We seek to invest in the holistic growth of our school community
in a deeper understanding and living of the gospel.
