About this Blog
"I see no value in a centre of learning that churns out numerous school leavers each year and is passively part of a society torn apart by division … our schools exist to challenge popular beliefs and dominant cultural values, to ask the difficult questions, to look at life from a standpoint of the minority, the victim, the outcast and the stranger."
Br Philip Pinto
As a Catholic school in the tradition of Edmund Rice, CBC Fremantle has a responsibility to sustain a culture that provides a solid bedrock of Gospel Values, embracing world changing practices where schism in religion, faith, race, class and gender are replaced with forgiveness and love, as modelled by Jesus Christ and peace-loving prophets from other faiths.
The CBC Fremantle journey challenges its graduates to be independent thinkers with the courage and persistence to confront injustice in our society. It decries the mediocrity so often prevalent in popular culture and encourages our young men to seek different and better ways to express what they believe.
The CBC gentleman is encouraged to discover what has worth in this world, to place value upon it and to strongly represent their beliefs.
The College Blog, 'The Road Less Travelled', is a collection of essays and researched articles written by our community, capturing the culture of our school and hoping to inspire the desire to make the world a better place.
