CHARTER FOR AUSTRALIAN SALESIAN SCHOOLS 

D. Handley 

GAWLER (S.A.): 17th July -- Earlier in 1998, the Administrative personal form Salesian

Schools in Australia gathered for their bi-annual conference. Among many issues discussed,

the group developed a Charter for Salesian Schools in Australia. This Charter has now been

published through the Provincial Advisory Council for schools. Schools and Colleges are

now encouraged to publish and use this Vision of Salesian practice in their organizations.

The hope of the group is that this document will present in contemporary terms the

touchstones that identify schools that have adopted the Salesian philosophy. The document is

not a treatise on the Preventive system, but rather a guide to see how the Preventive system

can be recognized in practice. 

The Vision is presented in this release. It can also be sourced from
