Nagle Care - christian service learning
What is Nagle Care?
Nagle Catholic College is committed to its motto, ‘for others’. This motto goes to the core of what it means to be a Christian. Jesus in the Gospels reminded his followers that he came to serve and not be served. Therefore, an important part of being a Nagle student is to find authentic ways to live out this value of servanthood modelled by Christ.

• Work for the common good, sustaining and improving natural and social environments
