Our Values

Our School values are underpinned by our Christian Faith.

​Compassion – we care for one another and want to act to make a better world.
Respect - We respect one another’s right to safety and dignity at school. We will speak to each other with calmness, politeness, and civility.
Do unto others - We actively think about how we would like to be treated if we were in the other person’s situation

​Do our best - We always strive to work on ourselves and achieve our personal best in the classroom.
Teamwork – We work together because we know that we can achieve more as a team than as individuals.
​Accountability - We hold ourselves accountable for our own actions, admit when we failed our own standards, and always strive to be our best selves.
