The Values We Live By
Positivity
Positivity
Positivity
We believe a positive and proactive attitude forms the basis for successful outcomes. We encourage students to be positive in their work, and to view negatives as temporary mistakes. Through positive reinforcement and building on successes, we've found this naturally inspires students and gives them confidence.
Effort
Positivity
Positivity
We believe that all success and achievement come through sustained effort and hard-work. We encourage staff and students to take responsibility, and apply themselves in order to achieve their desired outcomes. As the old saying goes - 'Rome wasn't built in a day.'
Excellence
