PLUS ULTRA 2025 | OUR STRATEGIC INTENT Plus Ultra 2025 Meeting the Needs of Our World Plus Ultra 2025, in setting out our vision and ambition for the future of St Peters, is also a response to meeting a deep need in our world. As we embark on the third decade of the 21st Century our children and young people are growing up in a VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex, ambiguous) environment and our world is facing deep challenges around reconciliation, pandemics, wellbeing, the distribution of resources, sustainability and the environment, ideological extremism, and the economy. Martin Luther, whose courageous actions 500 years ago sparked the Reformation, wrote that ‘a city’s best and greatest welfare, safety and strength consist in its having many able, learned, wise, honourable and welleducated citizens’. Plus Ultra 2025 is St Peters vision for an education that seeks to form many able, learned, wise, honourable and well-educated young people who respond to these challenges and make a difference in the world by leading and serving the communities in which they live. Plus Ultra 2025, in rising to these challenges aspires to create a future-focused education in a Christian context that empowers fine young people. Our world has much need for the fine young people of St Peters. In charting our course for this decade Plus Ultra 2025 remains true to the vision of founding Headmaster of St Peters Indooroopilly, Mr W C Schneider, whose great hope for St Peters was that it would be ‘a school where your sons and daughters will get the best possible training, a school which should do much good for the church and the country’.
