Our Vision

Inspiring Excellence

Our Purpose

Prince Alfred College exists to develop men who will engage in the world with confidence and compassion. We are a community that seeks to challenge and inspire students and maximise the academic and all-round potential of every boy.

Our Values

• We value the pursuit of academic excellence, personal wellbeing and achievement.
• We believe that our vision and purpose is achieved through the pursuit of excellence in teaching, innovation, leadership and team work and an appreciation of Christian principles.
• We make every endeavour to develop a well-rounded young man. This holistic experience fosters and nurtures the intellectual, physical, social, emotional and spiritual capabilities of each boy.
• We know that boys grow  into confident and compassionate men by developing independence, self-discipline, integrity and a sense of self-worth and social responsibility.
• We recognise the importance of sustaining and developing the College as a community of students, parents, staff, old scholars and friends of Princes, who have shared responsibilities in the education process.

Our School Motto

Fac fortia et patere
