“To challenge the individual to achieve, and to act with purpose and character.”

Paterson College. Whether it be in our challenging and dynamic academic program, the sporting arena, or within the Arts, our students develop the intellectual character to become passionate about the ongoing pursuit of learning; they develop the skills and confidence to succeed in an increasingly complex world; and become committed to a positive future for the good of all, through leadership development, service and active participation in their communities.
