Ignatian & Josephite Model

As a Catholic school enriched by the Ignatian tradition, Xavier College fosters the spiritual journey of each individual, focusing on the values that make them a uniquely Jesuit college.


From this has come the inception of the Iggies and Joeys, a model that groups our Igantian and Josephite houses by the core Catholic values inherent in their respective patron saint.

Where the Josephite tradition calls us to live the charism of Mary MacKillop through service, friendship and prayer, the Ignatian spirituality invites us to reflect, care and see God in all things.
