Pastoral Care and Welfare at Al Sadiq

The vision for the school is to create a learning environment where all students experience success

As a school founded on Muslim Alawite beliefs, Al Sadiq College Considers the well-being and personal development of all students as paramount. Our schooling environment is set-up to create a culture of liveliness, ­­aspiration, and contentment amongst all that is founded on positive Islamic virtues and values. Such culture has been nurtured by the positive, open and welcoming relationships between the different members of the College community.

In the words of Imam Ali (as)

“If a person behaves properly in matters between themselves and Allah, then Allah will keep proper the matters between them and other people and if a person keeps proper the affairs of their next life, then Allah keeps proper for them the affairs of this world. Whoever is a preacher for themselves is protected by Allah” (Nahj al Balagha Hadith 89)

Al Sadiq College is aware of the challenges that are present with the different stages of the student’s developmental journeys. We know that young people nowadays face enormous pressures in life. School, work, family and relationships can all be causes of stress in a young person’s life. The influences of social media are also additional factors that may potentially amplify any pre-existing pressures. Recognising these pressures, we also aim to educate our students about the real challenges that come in life and that as Australians of Alawite faith they have much to offer their nation and the wider world.

Sadiq College and are encouraged by the environment established by the Board, Executive, Staff and Parents within the college community.

Brothers and Sisters of Light Program

The Brothers and Sisters of Light program will aim to encourage a habit of God consciousness in the lives of our students, as well as developing strong values and virtutes that are so crucial in the modern world.  The knowledge and understanding of such aspects also underpin the fostering of positive relations within our school. God consciousness also allows students build awareness of the challenges that can arise in life.

Allah (swt) says in the Holy Quran

"Be sure We shall test you with something of fear and hunger, some loss in goods, lives, and the fruits of your toil. But give glad tidings to those who patiently persevere. Those who say, when afflicted with calamity, 'To Allah we belong, and to Him is our return.' They are those on whom descend blessings from their Lord, and mercy. They are the ones who receive guidance." (2:155-157)

The Brothers and Sisters of Light Program is delivered every week during the timetabled wellbeing lesson and alternates
