Our Mission
At Christian Brothers & Edmund Rice Network – Oceania, our mission is to foster communities where justice and compassion guide relationships and actions. We follow the legacy of our founder, Edmund Ignatius Rice, in providing education and community services that emphasize human dignity and social justice. We commit to enriching lives across Australia, New Zealand, and the broader Oceania region through our diverse network of schools, ministries, and community programs.
Our History
Founded by Blessed Edmund Ignatius Rice in the early 19th century, the Christian Brothers have grown from a small group dedicated to education and service to a global community. The Oceania chapter was established as part of our effort to extend our mission throughout the region, bringing the values and teachings of Edmund Rice to life through our actions and outreach.
