Student School Agreement

I have come in order that you might have life - life in all its fullness (John 10:10)

We aim to foster the intellectual, social, creative, physical, moral, emotional and spiritual development of all our students. We see each child as a unique person with a God-given individual identity. We strive to help children learn to live together in harmony, and to co-operate in working for the common good, not just for themselves. We recognise that only in giving due importance to moral and spiritual development can the child grow into a mature adult. Our curriculum and pastoral arrangements are not an end in themselves. They are a means to develop our students into whole, happy and well-educated people. This is an enterprise that involves co-operation between the student, school, home, church, and the wider community. Each of us has a vital part to play in realising our aim – to create a vibrant, outward-looking Christian community where students grow to become resourceful, resilient and reflective young men and women. Each of us plays a vital role in realising our vision:

Always our best because everyone matters
