Overview

Redfield College was founded in 1986 by a group of parents and teachers, The PARED (Parents for Education) Foundation, on the principles that parents are the primary educators and that schools exist to give parents every support. This support is found in the quality of the academic curriculum, in the way that staff work with students and parents in the unique mentoring system, in the emphasis on character development and virtues in the curriculum, and in the concern that staff and peer example be fully positive and supportive of parents. Home and school are united. There is ongoing input to parents through a variety of programs all designed to assist parents to be more effective. Students at Redfield work hard, with responsibility in studies seen as a key to character development.

Redfield College places importance on the development of virtues seen as good habits, the building blocks of character. By developing strengths of character such as sound judgement, self control, courage and responsibility towards others, students are better able to use their freedom to make the right choices in life. Human and civic virtues are fostered.

The education at Redfield is personal. Each boy receives a personal mentor, or mentor, selected from the teaching staff of the College. The mentor is a constant source of support for the student through his attention, friendship, example and advice. He meets regularly with the student during the term, and meets with his parents at least once each term, reviewing progress, and helping with goal setting. The mentor takes a personal interest in the progress of the boys whom he mentors, acting on the parents’ behalf, and coordinating the services of the College for the family. In addition parental values receive reinforcement from a positive peer environment present through the College.

The Redfield Leadership and Community Service Program is setting out to achieve this. We hope that other schools pick up on the integrated and developmental structure of the program, the insistence on character education, and on the need for ongoing experiences of service, and so that this program can be a beacon for others to follow.

The Program is a continuation and further development of the existing character education program at the school.

The Program is directed to all the boys at the school and extends to the old boys of the school too, being delivered through curriculum, a wide variety of workshops and visiting speakers, external mentored placements and ongoing experiences for community service.

The Program provides Leadership Education that emphasises character and the specific skills of leadership. We say that true leadership is the product of virtues and specific skills.

Redfield has frequently hosted visits from, and sent students to, Mikawadai College in Nagasaki, Japan, Colegio Viaro in Barcelona, Colegio Gaztelueta in Bilbao, Colegio Los Robles in Oviedo, and Monte VI in Montevideo & Colegio Penalba in Valladolid Uruguay.

Since 1989 Japanese students have been hosted at Redfield in class groups.

In recent years small groups of Redfield students from Year 9 travel to Europe, Asia and South America for a period of 6 weeks. The aim of the trips to Spanish-speaking countries is to increase the boys’ fluency with Spanish and enable them to experience a different culture.

Through the various service activities, the school hopes that the boys will learn to develop an awareness of the needs of those around them and of the community, whereby they then feel confident in addressing those needs in later life.
