=Notes from Phil's Discussion=

The seminal question of Jesus:

Who do I say I am?

How do we know ourselves?

What do we think, feel, wonder about - BELIVE! IMAGINE! SERVE!

What would your priorities be? What do you think needs to be initiated? What do you think needs to be cease? What do you like to experience?
 * If you were appointed Director of Catholic Education in Sandhurst for 5 years:**

Identity & Governance - Serving the Mission - Baptismal Call - Shared Wisdom - Subsidiarity - Stewardship - Collaboration - Co-Responsibility - Discenment - Collegiality WORD & WORSHIP
 * Key points from Phil's application**

Identity & Governance / Crisis or Opportunity? / What is worth fighting for?

'.... stage of transition which requires a deep knowledge and treasuring of the Sandhurst culture, a strong understanding of governance at all levels and a capacity to see the continuing possibilities for growth and 'human flourishing in a deeply Christian understanding.' (Source of Life)
 * TRANSITION!!!!**

How do we keep what we are doing sustainable?

How are we serving the 'OTHER'?

- Education is liberation - 'task of the educator is beyond the giving of new information to students, to bring them to the edge of their divine possibilities'
 * Education for Life to the Full**

Excitement and Joy

Governance - Centrality of Baptismal Call

What's worth fighting for in Catholic Education?

__**Phil's Commitment**__
 * Act justly
 * Love tenderly
 * Walk humbly with God
