We want our boarders to be strong, independent individuals and we hope they will use their time with us resourcefully. They will always live in communities, like their families, boarding house, and school, and we want them to be able to function effectively in such communities, to learn to get along with others, and to practice courtesy and co-operation.
Above all, we want our boarders to become men of character - knowing right from wrong, having the courage to stand (alone if necessary) for what they believe is right and willing to use their influence for the good of others.
Our fervent hope is that McGlashan graduates will be men of integrity and conviction.
