Students are nurtured and encouraged to be engaged and committed learners who develop skills in creative and critical thinking, and independent learning. The College motto – ‘For the Greater Good’ – comes from the Latin word ‘Magis’, meaning ‘more’. It provides a challenge for our students to live out their lives in such a way that the greater good is the key for making choices. Our patron, St Francis Xavier, used this phrase more widely to mean the universal good, or the better choice.&nbsp;</p> <p dir="ltr">&nbsp;</p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>The Organisation&nbsp;</strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Xavier College is proud to be part of the Catholic Education Diocese of Parramatta (CSPD).
