Mission & Service
Mission & Service

At Charlton we have a desire to teach our students to have an outward focus and a desire to contribute to others and the world they live in. Our Mission and Service trips therefore are an important part of achieving this. We provide opportunities for students from Junior, Middle and Senior School to participate in local and overseas mission trips each year.
Our staff are always looking for opportunities that will broaden students perspectives and experiences in order to equip them to be responsible and contributing global citizens.

JUNIOR SCHOOL

At Charlton, we are passionate about wanting young children to experience life beyond their ‘immediate world’.  Students, staff and parents
from Junior School head to Manila each year to serve the residents of Safehaven.

We desire for them to be given the opportunity to witness the reality of poverty, to help instill in them a compassion for the poor and for them to realise that living in Australia is a gift that should never be taken for granted.

MIDDLE SCHOOL

Each year our students and staff head to the Northern Territory to serve alongside Youth with a Mission Outback in Darwin.

Our students love helping others by mowing their lawns, digging weeds, gardening and mulching as well as helping students learn basic maths and reading skills.

It feels good to help others who have a bigger need than ours.

SENIOR SCHOOL

Our senior students and staff love heading to the Philippines each year to help serve families at Safehaven.

Students make significant contributions to the local community, SSC Church, and SafeHaven by repainting common areas, repairing equipment and creating a new garden areas. Additionally, they provided food packs for families in need.

Students love gaining a rich cultural experience, immersing themselves in others daily life routines and connecting with local families. Service to others really matter!
