St Kevin's Cardiff: Living the Josephite Charism

At St Kevin's Primary School, Cardiff, we are proud to embrace the Josephite Charism in everything we do. Inspired by the teachings of St Mary MacKillop, we focus on the values of faith, service, and simplicity to help our students grow into kind, thoughtful, and caring individuals.

Faith is thriving at St Kevin's. Through prayer, reflection, and liturgical celebrations, students are deepening their spiritual connection and recognising God's presence in their lives and the world around them. The Josephite spirit encourages us all to care for one another and foster a culture of respect and kindness.

We’re equally proud of how our community reflects the Josephite value of inclusivity. By celebrating cultural diversity and integrating Indigenous perspectives, students gain a deep respect for the traditions and stories of others—something St Mary MacKillop herself cherished.

Our school vision—a Catholic Community nurturing mind, heart, and spirit while following the light of Christ—is at the heart of all we do and is closely linked with the Josephite Charism:

• Nurturing Mind: We celebrate every child’s unique abilities and encourage a love for learning and discovery through modern and engaging teaching practices.
• Nurturing Heart: With Jesus at the centre of our lives, we focus on building relationships based on honesty, compassion, and integrity, creating a caring and supportive school community.
• Nurturing Spirit: Guided by our faith, we express love and compassion through our actions and demonstrate stewardship in caring for God's creation.

By living the Josephite Charism and embracing our vision, we help our students to grow into future leaders who will make a meaningful difference in their communities.
