Formation

The expression of our Catholic faith takes on many forms in Loreto schools. Loreto Ministries supports our schools and ministries with formation processes and resources aimed at deepening our appropriation of Gospel values, the charism of Mary Ward, the spirit of founders Teresa Ball and Gonzaga Barry, Ignatian spirituality and the education mission of the Catholic church.

Access to wonderful archives, pilgrimages, colloquia, liturgical material and guest speakers challenge and enrich us all. Loreto Ministries’ staff also collaborate with the Loreto Schools Australia Committee and our Principals’ Forum to update and generate resources/policies and support gatherings of students, staff, boards and Sisters. While our 2020 Formation Programs were suspended due to the Coronavirus pandemic, here we profile the 2021 Loreto Formation Framework and several of the 2019 Formation Programs run and/or supported by Loreto Ministries:
