There is a significant focus at St Leo’s on putting our faith into action and giving students agency and confidence to build a world that is positive, just and inclusive.

Our Youth Ministry Coordinator oversees our renowned Social Justice Program, where we offer many opportunities for students to learn about social justice and structural inequalities that create barriers in our society. Students can participate in a range of activities such as Street Retreats, nursing home visits, Relay for Life and many more opportunities.
