Program Overview

Program Overview

The 2025 GSE Triennial Conference program is designed to engage and challenge our extended Good Samaritan Education community to shape the dialogue of our ministry’s future in a dynamic and changing landscape.
The conference is open to those in Leadership and Governance roles across our Good Samaritan Education community and its friends and coworkers. In 2025, GSE will extend a special invitation to Good Samaritan Network Schools (GSSN).

The Breakout Sessions will be categorised, providing three opportunities across the program, in the below streams:

  • Education
  • Our Story
  • Governance
  • Integral Ecology
  • Reconciliation
  • Neighbour

Full program details outlining our diverse range of speakers will be released soon.

The Triennial Conference is a joint initiative of GSE and the ten schools of Good Samaritan Education; their participation costs are apportioned across the 11 entities.

Conference Participation of GSSN school representatives and GSE friends and coworkers is $500 per person.
