As a learning community we believe that children have a natural potential for learning and that they learn by experiencing success. We firmly believe that children need to be seen as creators of knowledge rather than mere consumers of knowledge. We value creativity and seek at all times to help students find their element, their gift and their passion. We believe each child is unique and gifted by God and that children grow in Christian values when Gospel values permeate the curriculum.The school achieves its mission by ensuring that a positive and affirming environment exists that helps children grow in self-esteem, respect for themselves and others. We actively encourage children to take pride in themselves, their family, their school and country.We see ourselves as a learning community and our staff regularly reflects on and renews their own professional learning goals.The school has a strong focus on reading and teachers here are proud to be experts in the field of literacy education.
