Compete, with the belief that we have every chance of success -
In our school everybody should work to constantly develop a purposeful and quality environment, well ordered for work and free from unnecessary interruption and intimidation.
We believe this environment is necessary to create a broad and balanced curriculum where everybody has their best chance to:
- Achieve beyond expectations
- Be proud of our community, our school, our achievements and our peers
- Compete, with the belief that we have every chance of success
- Develop a culture where we take appropriate risk
- Enable people to work together, in order to achieve more than we could on our own
We believe these aims will develop us spiritually, morally, socially and culturally, therefore helping to prepare us for the next challenges and opportunities in our lives.
