THE COLLEGE ARMS
THE COLLEGE HISTORY
The Badge of Padua College is derived from the coat of arms of the
Franciscan Order. It consists of a Tau cross, crossed arms, motto and
the word Padua.
Padua College received its name from the Franciscan Friar Saint
Anthony of Padua (1195-1231), appointed by St Francis as the first
Professor of Theology for the Friars. Padua is the university city of
northern Italy where St Anthony died.
Padua began in 1956 when the Franciscan Sisters who cared for the
parish primary school of St Anthony’s were no longer able to cater for
the large number of boys in their school. At the request of Sister Mary
Bernadette O’Callaghan OSF, the Friars, who had taken charge of the
Kedron parish since 1929, agreed to begin a separate school for boys.
Fr Damian Nolan ofm was appointed nominal Rector of the new school,
which began with two lay teachers, Mrs Eileen Cameron and Mr John
Fox, and 89 boys in Years 4, 5 and 6. The Friars began teaching in
the school in 1957 with the arrival of Fr Alban Mitchell ofm, Fr Angelo
O’Hagan ofm, and a little later Fr Odoric ofm.
Since that time Padua has developed with many extensions and
facilities. At present there are over 1200 students enrolled at the College.
Padua is the university city where Franciscan Friar, St Anthony, taught
and where he died and is buried.
The Tau is a letter of the Greek alphabet and is referred to in the Book
Ezechial where those who are especially blessed by God wear the
mark of the ‘Tau’ upon their foreheads. St Francis when he signed his
name also used the Tau cross as an indication that he wished to bless
his followers.
The crossed arms are those of Jesus Christ and St Francis. This
symbolises St Francis imitating Jesus by bringing God’s love, healing
and peace to our world.
The motto “Deus Meus et Omnia” are words of St Francis uttered in
praise of all that God and God’s creation mean to him. Literally translated
it reads: “My God and My All”.
The colours of the College are brown, gold and white. Brown is the
colour of what Francis called “mother earth” and gold is the colour of
what Francis called “brother son” whose heat and light make all things
grow and flourish. White symbolizes the Resurrection of Jesus who
liberates us from the powers of darkness.
Spirit
The Spirit of Padua flows from the founder of the Franciscan Order, St
Francis of Assisi (1182-1226). Padua College strives to be a Christian
community, and a place of affirmation and acceptance, where students
are encouraged to strive to their personal level of excellence.
Aim
The school’s major aim is to provide the boys with an education which
is not only Catholic but also distinctively Franciscan. Hence, we try to
operate not so much as an institution but rather as a faith community
living out Gospel values and placing an emphasis on the Franciscan
charism. We emphasize the value of each individual and aim at providing
an education which is both relevant and personal.
MISSION STATEMENT FOR PADUA COLLEGE
Inspired by the life of St Francis, Padua College is a Catholic school
community in which the Gospel values of joy, courtesy, humility
and peace are fostered. The Padua community aims to offer an
academic and social environment of security and affirmation that
assists the boys in their growth in self worth, wisdom and quiet
strength, enabling them to contribute positively as committed
Christians in the world.
In this spirit we commit ourselves to:
Within this context, Padua College strives to maximize each
individual’s attainment of excellence, while fostering his
responsibility to our community as well as the wider global
community. In simple terms the Mission Statement for Padua
College is:
• Pursuing a dynamic curriculum that draws upon and
develops the individual talents of a student leading him to
grow in wisdom and knowledge.
To provide a supportive community committed
to the dynamic education of young men, whose
individuality, spirit and achievements are nurtured
through a proud Catholic and Franciscan ethos.
• Building a caring Christian community, which will educate
the whole person.
• Encouraging members of the community to regularly pray
together and celebrate in liturgy.
• Respecting the needs of each person, offering joy, peace,
warmth and welcome.
• Promoting family commitment and involving parents in the
life of the school.
• Fostering effective communication between all members of
the College in order to facilitate closer working relationships.
• Nurturing a school spirit and pride that permeates all
aspects of College life.
GENERAL INFORMATION
EXPECTATIONS ON ENROLMENT
The Padua College Bulletin is published every two weeks during term. It is posted on the
Padua College website – www.padua.qld.edu.au. It is an important form of communication
between school and parents. The dates of its publication appear in this Calendar.
It is vital that the boys appreciate that the College has definite expectations of them.
PARENT/TEACHER CONTACT
As a Franciscan College the expectations for the behaviour of the boys are based upon the
Gospel teaching of peace and good will to all.
• That the boys will at all times show courtesy to one another, teachers, other members
of staff, and all visitors.
• That they will take part in the College Religious Education program, the celebration of
the Eucharist, other Liturgies and opportunities for Christian service and witness.
• That while travelling to and from school the boys will be courteous and respectful in
their behaviour, neatly dressed in the complete school uniform - hair to be kept neat
and tidy at all times, of natural colour and moderate style.
• That boys understand that smoking, the use of alcohol or other drugs is strictly
forbidden at school, on the way to and from school, whenever boys are in the school
uniform, at Padua or other school socials.
• Attend certain designated events eg House Eucharist, AIC/CIC Carnivals, Prize Giving
Evening.
• Involve themselves in a minimum of 2 co-curricular activities.
For Parents
It is a necessary condition of the enrolment of your son that parents fully support the ethos
of the school, and the expectations made by the school on your son. It is only by parents
and the College working together that it is possible that your son will grow in developing a
mature level of self-discipline, and so reach his personal level of excellence.
You are requested to regard the ‘Conditions of Enrolment’ form you signed as a contract
between yourselves and the College.
PARENT/COLLEGE CONTACT
The College accepts the enrolment of its students on the strong understanding that parents
support the general philosophy and ethos of the College as a Franciscan Catholic school. At
the practical level the College’s policy is expressed in its rules, regulations and expectations.
As recent research clearly indicates the Christian education provided by schools like Padua
is only a supplement to what is provided by parents.
Parents are encouraged to take an active interest in College activities and to cooperate with
the College administration in all matters relevant to their sons’ development.
The Parents & Friends’ Association meets once a month during term time and, with the
volunteers for Uniform Shop and Tuck Shop, give valuable assistance to the College.
Should parents wish to contact a teacher, they are free to do so by phoning the Office and
arranging an interview.
Formal contact with parents occurs a number of times a year. This can be in the form of
Information Evenings or Parent Teacher interviews. These opportunities are clearly indicated
in the College calendar and parents are urged to make themselves familiar with this document.
If you are concerned about your son, please seek an interview with his relevant College
Guardian at any time.
SCHOOL ATTENDANCE
Students are expected to attend every school day - including all school related activity days,
eg Reflection Days, Camps, Excursions and Sporting Carnivals. Parents are requested to
make appointments with dentists, medical practitioners, and the like, outside of school
hours. Parents are requested not to plan holidays and vacations that mean their son’s
absence from school.
HOMEWORK
Homework is a vital and necessary part of students’ education. It supplements and
complements the learning that occurs in the classroom.
‘Homework’ is not limited to specific tasks, problems, or questions set by a teacher to
be done overnight for a particular subject. ‘Homework’ refers to all study, exercises, set
tasks and revision done by a student individually, outside the classroom. This includes
assignments, wide reading and preparation for tests or exams.
STUDENT DIARY
At the beginning of the year, each student is expected to download the recommended eDiary.
This application assists the boys in recording homework and school messages. The diary is
complemented by the electronic student handbook which should also be downloaded to all
student iPads. The handbook contains College expectations regarding behaviour, assignment
policy, library rules, school uniform, homework and examination expectations. It also contains
prayers and hymns used during the year.
Parents are encouraged to read the eDiary and, throughout the year, check that homework
and assignments set are duly completed.

PASTORAL CARE PROGRAM
In the College each boy belongs to one of six Houses: Beirne House, Boyd Boland House,
Grigg House, Kirby House, Mitchell House and Odoric House. The names of the Houses
honour six prominent friar teachers who have taught or are teaching at Padua.
Fr Isidore Beirne ofm after graduating in science from the University of Melbourne, taught
at Padua from 1959 until 1977. Fr Isidore was an intellectual in the best sense of the word;
he was a brilliant teacher, specialising in teaching Mathematics and Science, but with
an expertise in everything from Theology to English literature. His dedication to Padua’s
future went well beyond the classroom. He was an indefatigable worker in fundraising, so
that there was money available to build the early stages of the College. He was a man of
great culture and in every way a gentleman. Hundreds of Paduans owe their success to
this Franciscan priest who dedicated his life to the education of others in the broadest
sense.
Fr John Boyd-Boland ofm began teaching at Padua in 1972-73, then he went to the
University of Leuven, Belgium and gained a Doctorate in Theology, and taught Moral
Theology in Melbourne for fifteen years before returning to Padua as Rector from 1990
to 2000. While at Padua Fr John revamped the pastoral care program introducing a
vertical pastoral care system with three houses, and pastoral care classes. He had the
College join the TAS, and later the AIC sporting competition, and was instrumental in
the purchase of the grounds at Banyo. In 1994 he organised for Padua to refurbish the
Franciscan Friary for use as an administration centre for the school, and it was renamed
“Saint Francis Hall.” To commemorate the 50th anniversary of Padua Fr John wrote “On
a Cragged Hill”. In recognition of his educational experience Fr John has been invited
to be a member of the Queensland Catholic Education Commission, and is currently on
the Brisbane Catholic Education Council. As a friar and chaplain Fr John continues his
ministry at Padua, leading the boys in the celebration of the Eucharist, and encouraging
the boys in their religious, academic, cultural and sporting achievements.
Fr Leo Michael Grigg ofm began teaching English and Geography at Padua in 1969. At
that time he was the second lay person on its staff and this was the beginning of his
long association with the Franciscans and an 18-year teaching career at Padua. Michael
was highly respected by his fellow staff and the students for his integrity, loyalty, fairness
and compassion. In 1984 he was appointed as the first lay Vice Rector of the College,
two years later he joined the Franciscan Order and was ordained in 1991. In 1993 he
died of cancer. At Padua he will always be remembered as a man of gentleness, a first
rate scholar, exemplary teacher, a person whose love of literature was infectious, and his
ability to enthuse students with this passion of his became legendary.
Fr Barry Kirby ofm began his long association with Padua in 1967, and taught at the
school for nineteen years. He was Vice Rector from 1978 to 1983, and then Rector for the
next six years, finishing at Padua in 1989. He will be remembered at Padua as a gentle
and loving man, comfortably surrounded by his students, and enjoyed fostering a strong
Franciscan spirit among the boys, and did much to strengthen the old boy network at
the school. He was a firm follower of Rugby League, and for some time President of
the Independent Schools Rugby League competition, and its Confraternity Shield. It was
Fr Barry’s foresight that had the College purchase the property on which has been built
our Outdoor Education complex, “Amaroo”. It is a testimony to his popularity among his
students that so many old boys continued to keep a close contact with him well after he
left the school. Fr Barry died on 2nd August 2012 after years of battling with cancer. He is
buried at the Franciscan section of Macarthur cemetery in Sydney.
Fr Alban Mitchell ofm was one of the founding friars of Padua. In 1957 he was appointed
Rector of a school of 90 boys. He continued in this post for 9 years during the first
important development of the College. In 1975 he was again Rector and resigned from this
responsibility in 1977. Fr Alban is remembered at Padua as a gentlemen, friar and priest,
who with exceptional good humour and wry originality won the hearts of so many people.
His gentle lovable and somewhat absent-minded temperament is stamped on Padua
never to be effaced. The beautiful natural surroundings of the College are the inspiration
of this one man’s refinement of spirit and sheer hard work. A very fine sportsman himself,
for many years he coached football. He taught English and Ancient History at Padua
and Mt Alvernia. As a dedicated priest-friar, he exercised a very active, generous and
well appreciated apostolate beyond education. The founding father of Padua has left us
a gentle spirit to guide future generations of Paduans in their search for God and their
growth in culture.
Fr Odoric (Hugh) Fathers ofm was a much loved, guiding figure of Padua College for
almost 34 years. Appointed to the fledgling school in 1957, Fr Odoric began his impact
on thousands of young minds and hearts as a teacher and Vice Rector. He was a natural
educator who shared his wide range of interests and passions with the students. He
had a passionate interest in astronomy and his rock collection comprised many varieties
of special gems, collected on expeditions with his students. He was a gifted pianist,
organist and choir director. He helped establish Padua’s reputation as a College devoted
to musical excellence, and the College choir under his baton earned numerous awards
and accolades. Fr Odoric was a very practical “hands-on” worker, equally at home on
the tractor as he was in the classroom. He was always known by his professed name of
Odoric, taken after Odoric of Pordenone, who was a Franciscan priest of the fourteenth
century venerated as the patron of the Chinese missions and also of long distance
travellers. Fr Odoric will always be remembered for his cheerful spirit, his contribution
to the establishment and direction of Padua College, and his loyalty to friends and friars.
