Guided by the educational mission of Caritas, the school embraces “Be Faithful, Diligent and Stay Simple  Love God and One Another” as its motto. Building upon “Faithfulness, Honesty, Diligence, Simplicity, Respect, and Love” as the blueprint for whole-person development, we attend to students’ developmental needs, foster moral character, and nurture leadership capacity—shaping them into 21st-century citizens endowed with both virtue and competence.

 

We firmly believe that every student is unique and, with proper guidance, capable of realizing their full potential. At the heart of this belief is the cultivation of a Growth Mindset—the conviction that intelligence and ability can be continually developed rather than defined by comparison with others. By identifying clear aspirations, daring to step outside their comfort zones, adopting effective strategies, committing to deliberate practice, learning from adversity, and persevering with resilience, students will achieve self-transcendence and pursue excellence.

 

 

C - Caring

CTM is dedicated to carrying forward the traditional virtue of benevolence (Ren’ai), instilling courtesy and mutual respect in our students. We place great emphasis on cultivating empathy, enabling students to appreciate diverse perspectives and care deeply for the well-being of others. We encourage practical expressions of filial piety and respect for teachers, while inspiring students to care for the campus and the wider community to build a harmonious environment together. We also champion service to the underprivileged, environmental stewardship, and active contributions to society.

 

 T - Transcendence

We believe that every student possesses unique gifts. Through a rich array of co-curricular and Life-wide Learning experiences, students discover their passions and set ambitious goals across multiple domains. They learn to harness effective strategies, reflect constructively on feedback, and translate aspirations into reality—ultimately achieving self-transcendence. Furthermore, the school provides progressive leadership opportunities backed by a structured training framework, empowering students to discover and showcase their leadership capabilities.

 

 M - Moral

Clear classroom routines and school codes not only instil self-discipline, but also empower students to discern right from wrong and grasp core ethical principles. The school is committed to fostering upright values and civic literacy. Through academic curricula and Life-wide Learning activities, students journey through the integration of knowledge, emotion, will, and action (知、情、意、行) to build sound character. By understanding the rights and responsibilities attached to various social roles and honing their critical thinking skills, students are prepared to act with moral integrity and prioritize the common good whenever faced with challenges or decisions.
