• Hume has an open enrolment policy so educates children from many faiths and with a diverse range of backgrounds and abilities.
• The School aspires to develop young people who are kind, creative, inquiring, socially and emotionally at ease, and who strive to achieve their personal best in all their endeavours.
• In 2025, the school has 2,960 students and employs some 300 staff - 208 teaching and 92 non-teaching. The anticipated student enrolment at each campus is at Freier 1,456, Donnybrook 1,028 and Kalkallo 476.

• As one of Victoria's fastest growing schools, it is expected to be one of the largest non-government schools in the state, with plans for further expansion.

Hume provides its students with an education that prepares them for the challenges of life, equips them to contribute to the community in an environment based on Christian values and at a cost affordable to as many families as possible. By establishing high standards in all that we do, every student is encouraged and supported to discover and fulfil their unique potential.

It is not by chance that we have young people who readily display warmth, humour and respect for one another and their teachers.
