IGNITING OUTSTANDING FUTURES

COLLEGE PROSPECTUS

KAYA

We acknowledge that Corpus Christi College, situated in Bateman, stands on Whadjuk Country, the land of the Whadjuk Noongar people, who have cared for this land faithfully for thousands of years.

We honour and pay respect to the Whadjuk Noongar Elders and recognise the deep spiritual and cultural connection First Nations Peoples have to Country, a connection grounded in a sacred relationship between land, people, and Creator Spirit.

Nearby, at Piney Lakes, the Whadjuk people have gathered for generations. This place has long been a space of cultural teaching, where children learned from Elders about land, lore, and life. For Noongar women in particular, Piney Lakes is a place of significance, a site for healing, ceremony, and the passing on of women’s knowledge and wisdom.

As a K–12 Catholic learning community, we are inspired by this example and reminded of the importance of listening deeply and learning respectfully across all ages and stages of life.

At Corpus Christi College, we believe in the dignity of every person as made in the image of God. In the spirit of courage, we face our shared history with honesty. With commitment, we walk together on the journey of Reconciliation. And through compassion, we open our hearts to healing, truth, and understanding. We give thanks for the First Nations students, staff, families, and community members who are part of our College and parish. We look to them as leaders and wisdom-keepers of the future.

EVERYDAY, WE STRIVE TO BE OUTSTANDING FOR OTHERS

Corpus Christi College is more than a school. It is a community where students thrive academically, socially, and spiritually. Our community is built on connection, extending beyond physical spaces and accolades. At the heart of all we do is our Catholic faith, inspiring us to act with integrity, compassion, and a deep sense of curiosity.

As a warmly inclusive community, we welcome students from all backgrounds, united by a shared vision and commitment to excellence. Every student is known and loved for who they are - each bringing unique gifts and talents to be nurtured and celebrated.

Corpus Christi College is a school of choice, where students are encouraged to engage in a rich array of opportunities - from Academics, Sport, and the Arts, to Service, leadership, and faith formation - challenging themselves, discovering new passions, and growing in confidence and purpose.

We courageously respond to the dynamic nature of the current global landscape by creating a contemporary, holistic, skillsbased learning environment, which fosters a sense of agility and student agency.

Our dedicated staff are passionate about creating a dynamic learning environment that encourages curiosity, critical thinking, and a genuine love of learning.

COURAGE COMMITMENT COMPASSION

‘Corpus Christi is more than a school; we are a community committed to being Outstanding for Others. Our students are encouraged to boldly aspire to their full potential, whether in Academics, Sports, or the Arts, while leading with Courage, Commitment, and Compassion. Here, excellence is not just about achievements; it’s about making a real, positive impact on the world around us.’

COMMITMENT COMPASSION

OUR VALUES

'At Corpus Christi College, our Values shape who we are and how we grow together as a learning community. Guided by the core Values of Courage, Commitment and Compassion, we foster a culture where each individual is supported to flourish.’

Courage calls our students to grow, to lead, and to serve. It is the willingness to take risks, to stand up for what is right, and to embrace the challenges that come with learning and personal growth.

Commitment reflects the responsibility each person in our community holds to themselves, to others, and to the College. It is about striving for excellence, showing persistence, and taking pride in effort and progress.

COURAGE COMMITMENT COMPASSION

Compassion is expressed through care, respect, and kindness. It is the foundation of a connected community, where empathy and inclusion ensure that every student feels known, valued, and supported.

In a world marked by constant change, students need more than knowledge. They need the character and confidence to shape the unfolding story of their future - one not yet written, but full of promise.

Our Values provide the foundation for this. They guide the way we teach, relate and grow, inspiring students to become resilient, reflective and purposeful in all they do.

Graduates of Corpus Christi College emerge as capable, compassionate and courageous individuals.

They are change-makers, pacesetters, innovators, activists, thinkers and carers who fundamentally understand the call to be Outstanding for Others and are confident in who they are.

Grounded in our Catholic mission and united by our Vision to be Outstanding for Others, Corpus Christi College prepares students not just for success in learning, but for a life of meaning and impact.

OUR PURPOSE OUR PROMISE

OUR VISION

The Vision of Corpus Christi College is clear: to be Outstanding for Others.

This calls us to strive for excellence not just in what we achieve, but in how we serve. It reminds us that true success is found in our impact: in the way we lead with integrity, care deeply for others, and contribute to something greater than ourselves.

Corpus Christi College is a school of choice, where individuals are drawn into a vibrant and united community, one that is greater than the sum of its parts. Here, each student is supported to find their

place, contribute their gifts, and grow alongside others in a spirit of shared purpose. We believe that learning flourishes in community, and that every student will find something here to ignite their passion, purpose and potential.

This Vision drives a culture where service, leadership and learning are deeply connected. It shapes the aspirations of our students, who are encouraged to grow not only in skill and knowledge, but in empathy, purpose and courage.

OUR MISSION

Our Mission is to Ignite the Spirit through Courage, Commitment and Compassion.

This Mission underpins every element of College life from the way we welcome families into our community, to the learning experiences we design, to the opportunities we offer for spiritual, personal and academic growth. It reflects our commitment to nurturing students holistically: intellectually, emotionally, physically and spiritually.

To Ignite the Spirit is to awaken a sense of purpose, curiosity and inner strength within each learner. It means fostering a deep engagement with a lifelong

love of learning, passion, curiosity and a readiness to serve others with heart and humility. At Corpus Christi College, we seek to light that spark in every student: a spark that grows into the courage to lead, a deep commitment to living with purpose and the compassion to care deeply for the world around them.

As students move through their Corpus Journey, they are invited to discover not only who they are, but who they are becoming. With a strong sense of purpose and the courage to shape their own paths, they step into the future as learners, leaders and people of heart - ready to make a difference in a world that needs exactly what they have to offer.

THE CORPUS JOURNEY

A LIFELONG PILGRIMAGE OF FAITH, LEARNING & GROWTH

At Corpus Christi College, each student’s education is seen as a sacred pilgrimage, one of discovery, transformation, and purpose. Inspired by the missionary journeys of St Paul, the Corpus Journey traces a student’s growth from Pre-Kindergarten through to Year 12.

In the early years, students begin with wonder and awe, forming their first connections with others and with God. Like St Paul’s early call, this stage is about awakening curiosity, kindness, and belonging.

As they progress through Junior School, students grow in knowledge and community. They are encouraged to explore their gifts, think critically, and act with compassion and service.

In Years 7 to 10, opportunities shape their identity, resilience, and purpose. With the support of teachers and peers, they grow in integrity and faith.

In the senior years, students are prepared to be sent forth, equipped with the values, skills, and confidence to lead lives of meaning and hope and be Outstanding for Others.

Every student is seen, known, and nurtured as part of the Body of Christ, walking the journey with Courage, Commitment, and Compassion.

OUR COMMUNITY

BELONG EMPOWER CARE

TOGETHER WE FLOURISH

Corpus Christi College is a welcoming and inclusive community that celebrates the uniqueness and diversity of each person formed in the image and likeness of God. We foster a safe and supportive environment and create the conditions for a flourishing community that nurtures the wellbeing, strengths, and gifts of each person.

Authentic connections lie at the heart of our community and nurture a strong sense of belonging and engagement. We work in close partnership with students, families and staff to ensure we provide the best possible environment for students to connect, learn and grow.

We promote wellbeing and human flourishing by ‘nurturing spiritual, religious, cognitive, physical, emotional, and social development’ (Catholic Education WA - CEWA). In living and embedding the core tenants of positive education, our teaching and learning practices promote an educational environment where students ‘feel good and do good’. When students feel good, have their psychological and social needs met, and exist within a wellbeing culture, they are ready to learn and embrace challenges with confidence, grit, and a growth mindset.

BELONG

Corpus Christi College is a learning environment where all members of our community feel known and loved. A genuine sense of connection is fostered with an unconditional positive regard for the dignity of all.

Our understanding of one another builds rapport and establishes a sense of belonging. Being connected ensures that learners embrace their strengths and contribute to the wider College community.

Belonging at Corpus Christi College is more than a feeling - it is a lived experience woven into every aspect of College life. Our K-12 House structure and

program sees students journey from the sandpit to graduation within the same House community, building meaningful connections across year levels and fostering a shared sense of belonging, identity, and pride.

Belonging and connection to our community is further strengthened through cohort-based events, activities, and whole-school initiatives. These opportunities allow students to actively live out our College Values, build trusting and respectful relationships, and engage fully in the vibrant life of the College.

EMPOWER

We challenge every learner in our community to take ownership of their choices and learn from experience to seize their potential. We empower them to become agents of their own learning and growth. By setting goals, and acting responsibly, they will effect positive change and develop the capacity to ‘learn how to learn’.

Empowering our students means guiding them to become confident, self-aware, and capable individuals who take ownership of their learning and personal growth. Through our Pastoral Program Framework, students are supported at every stage of development to build the skills, knowledge, and capabilities needed to thrive. Students learn to recognise and harness strengths, develop reflective practices that support wellbeing, and build self-regulation strategies that prepare them to effectively engage in their learning.

Our Student Engagement Procedure further supports this, helping students to recognise their readiness to learn and successfully implement strategies that support positive engagement in all aspects of College life.

CARE

Wellbeing is the cornerstone of a flourishing community. Students perform best when they are well, feel safe and cared for. Our proactive approach to students care enables us to understand our students and actively accompany them on their educational journey.

We partner with our parents and caregivers to personalise and best support each student as they grow, develop and progress. A key aspect of our community is the care and wellbeing of self and others.

Genuine care for every student is central to our College Vision and Mission. Our multi-tiered system of support provides a strong and responsive framework that ensures each child is known, valued, and supported throughout their Corpus Journey. We work in close partnership with students, families, and staff to identify individual needs and deliver personalised support that promotes both wellbeing and learning. This collaborative, team-based approach supported by our Wellbeing Team enables us to create a caring, safe and inclusive environment where students feel understood, connected, and empowered to thrive.

OUR HOUSE SYSTEM

At Corpus Christi College, our House system is a cornerstone of student life, fostering belonging, empowerment, and care across Pre-Primary to Year 12. From the earliest years through to graduation, students are part of a connected, supportive community where they form strong bonds, take pride in their House, and grow alongside their peers in a dynamic and inclusive environment.

Through a wide range of House activities, students build meaningful relationships across year levels, strengthening the connection between Junior and Senior School. This seamless structure ensures that every student has opportunities to contribute, participate, and lead - whether through Sport, the Arts, Service, or Stewardship.

Our House system plays an essential role in creating a nurturing environment where students develop strong relationships and embrace the College’s Values. Students take ownership of their learning and leadership within their House, engaging in activities that encourage teamwork, resilience, and personal growth. With a strong emphasis on pastoral care and mentoring, the House system ensures students feel well-supported throughout their educational journey.

House representation is a source of pride, with students wearing their House shirts on Fridays and participating in Inter-House competitions, including sporting events, creative arts, and service initiatives. Our House system is deeply embedded in College life, inspiring students to flourish in a vibrant and inclusive community. It is more than just a structure - it is the heart of our community, fostering connection, identity, and a deep sense of belonging. Each House is named after an inspiring patron whose legacy guides our students in their journey of faith, learning, and service.

The Early Years at Corpus Christi College are a time of joyful discovery, where every child is nurtured as a capable, curious and unique learner. In a play-based, inclusive environment grounded in Catholic values, children are supported to grow socially, emotionally, physically and spiritually.

Through purposeful play and rich learning experiences, children begin developing essential foundations in early literacy and numeracy.

These opportunities allow students to discover their talents, express themselves, and develop a love of learning that extends well beyond the classroom. Our partnership with families remains central, ensuring each child’s unique strengths are celebrated.

From Years 7 to 12, students are supported to deepen their understanding of themselves, their learning, and their place in the world.

Through co-constructed learning experiences, students are invited to think critically, ask questions, and take increasing responsibility for their growth.

LEARNING PATHWAYS

SENIOR YEARS & PATHWAYS

As students transition into the senior years, they are empowered to shape their own educational pathways. With expert guidance and a broad array of subject choices, students are supported to pursue their individual goals, whether they lie in higher education, vocational training, or direct entry into the workforce.

Pathway exploration begins in Year 9 with the Careers Explorer elective. In Year 10, all students undertake the Discover Your Pathway curriculum, which introduces the full range of post-school options and prepares them for informed subject selection.

In Years 11 and 12, students at Corpus Christi College are supported to select from four distinct educational pathways, each designed to align with their individual strengths, interests, and future aspirations. The Spark Pathway caters to academically gifted students who seek enrichment and intellectual challenge. The Inquiry Pathway is ideal for those with a passion for research, analysis, and academic depth. For students who wish to combine academic studies with practical skills, the Fusion Pathway offers a balanced blend of academic and vocational learning. Meanwhile, the Work-wise Pathway provides a practical, career-focused route, preparing students for direct entry into the workforce or further vocational training.

Each pathway is tailored to the student’s learning profile and aspirations, supported by individual course mentoring to ensure a successful and fulfilling Senior School experience.

THE SPARK PATH

DIVERSITY & INCLUSIVITY PROSPECTUS

Corpus Christi College is committed to fostering a welcoming and inclusive community where every student is valued and supported to thrive. We offer two key programs to support students with additional learning needs:

Diverse Learning: Our Diversity Team provides tailored support for students requiring adjustments in literacy, numeracy, and organisation. Programs such as iLan (Years 7–10) and Consolidation English and Mathematics (senior years) help students achieve their academic goals through personalised learning plans developed in collaboration with families and staff.

Inclusive Learning: The Inclusive Learning Centre (ILC) supports students with complex needs through individualised education or transition plans. The purposebuilt ILC offers a nurturing environment from Years 7–12, with opportunities for integration into mainstream classes and participation in the wider school community.

The Spark Path at Corpus Christi College empowers academically gifted students to extend their learning, embrace challenge, and pursue excellence in a dynamic environment. Designed to foster advanced thinking, intellectual curiosity, and a passion for lifelong learning, this pathway offers enrichment opportunities that promote critical thinking, collaboration, and realworld problem solving.

These include spirited competitions such as the Da Vinci Decathlon, Tournament of Minds, and the Ethics Olympiad, as well as interactive sessions with academic experts in their fields. Spark Path students benefit from personalised learning pathways, allowing for targeted differentiation and deeper exploration of curriculum content tailored to students’ strengths and interests.

Given the College's unique location, we have strong partnerships with all key tertiary institutions. This gives our students unprecedented access to fasttrack programs such as Rising Scholars and microcredentials.

BESPOKE ELECTIVES

One of the standout features of learning at Corpus Christi College is the breadth and depth of our elective program. From Year 7 through to Year 10, students are offered the opportunity to explore a rich and diverse range of subjects which nurture their creativity, build confidence, and ignite the spark of curiosity.

Our electives are intentionally dynamic. We remain flexible and responsive to student interests, adjusting our offerings annually to ensure they reflect both demand and emerging opportunities.

HEAD HEART HANDS OUR FAITH LIFE

IN SERVICE OF OTHERS

At Corpus Christi College, Catholic Identity and Mission is a living and vibrant presence, shaping a community where faith is proposed, not imposed. Planted in the richness of the Catholic tradition, our Religious Education curriculum and faith formation programs invite students into deep thinking, authentic reflection, and compassionate action.

Guided by the three drivers of Head, Heart and Hands, students are encouraged to develop their understanding of a Catholic worldview (Head), form values and character through reflection and encounter (Heart), and live out their faith in acts of service to others (Hands).

Inspired by St Paul’s theology of the Body of Christ, students are formed to recognise their unique role within the wider community, to be the real and active presence of Christ in the world. Through a range of opportunities, meaningful experiences and practical service, students are empowered to grow in faith, develop skills for life, and respond with Courage, Commitment and Compassion to the needs of others.

HEAD

We focus on forming students intellectually through a deep and comprehensive understanding of the Catholic faith and the broader religious landscape. From Pre-Primary through to Year 12, students engage with the CEWA Religious Education Curriculum, with senior students following SCSA’s Religion and Life courses. Learning is planted in the study of Scripture, Church history, theology, and Catholic social teaching, encouraging students to explore faith within realworld contexts.

Enquiry into world religions and interfaith dialogue broadens their perspective, while ethical debates and theological reflections deepen critical thinking. Understanding the College’s Eucharistic charism fosters a strong sense of identity.

Staff are also continually formed in Catholic ethos, ensuring a coherent and faith-informed learning environment across the whole College.

HEART

We nurture the spiritual and emotional growth of students by creating opportunities for personal encounter with Christ and fostering a reflective inner life. From Kindergarten through to Year 12, students are immersed in rich spiritual experiences, including annual retreats, daily Class and Homeroom prayer, and participation in liturgical life. Year 7, 9, and 12 students engage in extended immersive retreats that deepen their faith and strengthen community bonds. Whole-school and year-level Masses, the celebration of liturgical seasons such as Advent and Lent, and regular access to the Sacrament of Reconciliation help form students in the rhythms of the Church.

The College shares a strong relationship with St Thomas More Parish, providing a direct connection for families who wish to celebrate the Sacraments of Initiation: Baptism, First Eucharist, and Confirmation, ensuring a pastoral pathway for faith development within the broader Catholic community. Weekly Masses, Christian Meditation, prayer spaces, guest speakers, and staff spirituality days further enrich the culture of prayer, reflection, and personal faith formation across the whole College.

HANDS

Learning and experience transform belief into action, empowering students to live out their faith through service and justice. From an early age, students are involved in programs that respond to the needs of others, such as fundraising for Catholic charities, participating in environmental stewardship, and engaging in the Outstanding For Others Acts of Service Program. As they grow, students can take part in more complex service-learning experiences including immersion trips and pilgrimages, volunteering in local agencies, and contributing to Vinnie's Winter and Christmas Appeals.

Opportunities such as Young Vinnie's and peer mentoring promote leadership through service. Ministry and Mission Student Leadership roles further reinforce the value of hands-on discipleship, forming students who are compassionate and committed to making a difference in their communities and beyond.

OUR STORY

PEOPLE ENVIRONMENT LEGACY

PAST, PRESENT, FUTURE

Every day at Corpus Christi College, our students lead, serve, and engage with the world around them, transforming each opportunity into a stepping stone for positive change. Guided by our commitment to stewardship, we act with courage, and compassion, always striving to serve others selflessly. Every member of our community embraces the College Values, working together to build a just and compassionate society where all can flourish.

A global awareness is embedded into each student’s Corpus Journey, nurturing socially responsible, confident, and capable young people who are ready to lead with purpose and shape a brighter future. We are committed to building a sustainable future, continually evolving to provide an outstanding learning environment that meets the needs of our students in an ever-changing world.

ENVIRONMENT

LEGACY

Our legacy is shaped by the proud histories of Yidarra Catholic Primary and Corpus Christi College, whose traditions we honour while embracing innovation for the future. Strong partnerships with the School Advisory Council and Friends of Corpus help guide us in shaping a collective story that continues to inspire. Our alumni also play a vital role and a lasting connection that strengthens our evolving story.

ENVIRONMENT

We are committed to caring for our ‘Common Home,’ inspired by Pope Francis' call to environmental stewardship. Our learning environments, both physical and digital, are thoughtfully designed to support a positive student

experience, with sustainability and equity in mind. The College’s digital learning platform, supported by our College-owned Device Program, ensures a seamless and inclusive experience for all students.

PEOPLE

At the heart of Corpus Christi College is a belief in the power of people to lead, serve, and be Outstanding for Others. Students are encouraged to take on leadership roles and engage in meaningful service through a variety of opportunities. Families, staff, and alumni work together to create a supportive community where relationships flourish and each individual is empowered to contribute and thrive.

JUNIOR SCHOOL

Stewardship begins in the earliest years. Even our youngest students are invited to see themselves as active participants in shaping a future grounded in care, respect, and service. Through hands-on experiences and meaningful relationships, Junior School learners discover that every action - no matter how small - contributes to something bigger.

Junior School students are introduced to the rich traditions, stories, and values that shape our College identity. From their earliest years, they learn that they are part of an ongoing story and have a role in honouring the past while shaping the future.

Our youngest learners are encouraged to care for their classrooms, shared spaces, and natural surroundings as part of their daily experience. These early habits build an understanding of sustainability and pride in contributing to a respectful and future-focused environment.

STUDENT LEADERSHIP

We believe every student is a leader in their own right. Leadership is nurtured from the earliest years and formalised through defined roles in Year 6 that align with the College’s K–12 leadership pathway. These roles foster responsibility, service, and school pride, setting the foundation for continued growth in the senior years. Students come to understand that leadership is grounded in everyday actions that reflect our College Values.

By recognising and nurturing each student’s unique gifts and talents, we provide a broad range of leadership opportunities across various scales. Whether through formal roles or everyday acts of initiative and service, students are empowered to discover and develop their own authentic leadership style, fostering confidence, responsibility, and a sense of purpose.

SHAPING A BRIGHT FUTURE

Every child is nurtured in a values-based, supportive community where they are known, safe, and belong. We work in genuine partnership with parents and caregivers, supported by our active Friends of Corpus group, to shape a shared vision for our students’ success. Each child embarks on a personalised Corpus Journey, guided by dedicated staff across wellbeing, learning diversity, pathways, and faith formation.
