About

The 2026 event seeks to nourish the mind, body and soul and activate a spirit of creativity, enlivened faith and exceptional leadership through the lineup of speakers, activities and offerings.

The theme acknowledges school leaders can often feel depleted and spread thinly in their vocation, which is so much more than a job. To be a Principal is to follow a passion, follow a purpose, and lead by authentic action. To be a Catholic Principal is also to nourish a personal relationship with Jesus Christ which inspires living a life of integrity and inviting all to share in the Good News.

The event intends to nourish every facet of your person, bringing to life the VACPSP’s role in supporting the Principal.

We adopt a broad view of wellbeing to one of wholistic health that encourages connection with peers, to inspirational and skill-based speakers, to childlike fun, to mindfulness opportunities, faith connection, dialogue and reflection.
