The school plays an important role in the community as we work towards having an environment that is based on an established core set of values of connectedness, resilience achievement, creativity, integrity, responsibility and equity. Connectedness includes developing a sense of community through friendship, care, compassion, acceptance, belonging and sharing. Resilience includes recognising strengths and maximising potential. Achievement includes attaining personal success, pursuing individual excellence and displaying pride and satisfaction in personal achievement. Creativity includes valuing original ideas and demonstrating enterprise and innovation. Integrity includes acting honestly, ethically and consistently. Responsibility includes accepting both individual and collective responsibility. Equity includes developing tolerance and a commitment to social justice, acknowledging diversity and respecting differences. The school strives to achieve this through high quality classroom teaching and care and a number of quality programs that include specialists programs and support for students with high or additional needs.
