Matthew 20:34 – “So Jesus had compassion and touched their eyes. And immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed Him.”

We model Compassion and understanding for others every day.

We

  • serve others and seek out opportunities to support those in our community who are in need
  • know our students and respect their unique back grounds and needs as learners.

Excellence

Matthew 5:14 - “You are the light of the world – like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden. No one lights a lamp and then puts it under a basket.”

We believe in Excellence and being our best selves for one another in everything that we do.

We

  • ensure our students see themselves as learners who reflect on their learning and their progress.
  • collaborate to ensure excellent learning behaviours and teaching practices.
  • ensure our learners know their success, fostering resilience and engagement in the learning process.
  • are always prepared for learning and learners have access to quality resources needed for learning.

Hospitality

John 13:14 - “If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.”

We show love and welcome for one another through Hospitality.

We

  • believe in the engagement of families, ensuring that positive partnerships remain strong for the benefit of their children and their progress
  • build relationships by making everyone feel welcome and included.

Integrity

Luke 6:31 – “Treat others the same way you want them to treat you.”

We act with Integrity. We are accountable, trustworthy and conduct ourselves honestly and ethically.

We

  • are inclusive of the needs of our learners and respond so that they experience success.
