This is the motto of many Catholic schools and colleges, such as St Paul's Catholic School and Performing Arts College. It is based on a revision of the verse in Micah 6:8 which reads in the World English Bible as follows:
He has shown you, O man, what is good. What does Yahweh require of you, but to act justly, To love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God? (Micah 6:8)
It has been changed for the motto, so that it now reads like this:
This is what Yahweh asks of you: to act justly; to love tenderly and to walk humbly with your God. (Micah 6:8) Sources:

To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God
Micah 6:8" He has shown you, O mortal, what is good.And what does the LORD require of you?To act justly and to love mercyand to walk humbly with your God"
It means that we must be careful to be just and merciful and be modest instead of arrogant. The prophet Michah wrote that, around the 4th or 5th chapter of his book.
Keep my commandsAnswer:"He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God." (Micah 6:8)
Prophet Micah stressed the importance of social justice in the Old Testament. He famously said, "He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God" (Micah 6:8).
The person who will walk with you is the person that loves you, if you think they love you and they don't walk with you then they don't really love you.
The prophet who emphasized making God's priorities your own was Micah, who instructed people to act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with God. These teachings were centered on the importance of living a righteous and ethical life in accordance with God's will.
According to a Christians view, God wants us to act justly, love him, and walk humbly with him. That is a quote from the Bible, Micah 6:8. Buddhists believe you must rid yourself of all worldly desires. Hinduists believe that you must attain oneness with god through meditation and yoga. Judaists believe they must obey the Law given to them by Moses, and they must repent of their sin.
