Our Philosophy
We believe that all students should be given equal opportunities to be successful. Social, physical, creative activities and community service play an important role in student development and promoting school spirit.
The promotion of self discipline in a caring and compassionate environment will assist students, staff, teachers and administrators in working independently and collaboratively towards their shared goal of obtaining and providing the best education.
A positive, safe and purposeful ambience ensures a productive environment for a child to develop the confidence and skills of a lifelong learner.
Vision
In our vision for the school, each and every student should develop and mould their ambitions towards perfection.
The goal is to support and nurture the student’s and our own natural desire to be lifelong learners. We anticipate creativity and initiative, enterprise and innovation, and cognitive strategies for progressive learning. Our vision is to prepare and motivate our students for a rapidly changing world, by instilling in them critical thinking skills, a global perspective and a respect for core values of honesty, loyalty, perseverance and compassion. Students will have success for today and be prepared for tomorrow.
