Our Vision and Ethos
Our Vision
Our vision is that every member of our school community reaches their full potential as individuals, in a school where we are living God’s love through our Christian values and by serving others, respecting and celebrating differences and becoming life-long learners.
Linked Bible Verse
You are like light for the whole world. A city built on a hill cannot be hidden. No one lights a lamp and puts it under a bowl; instead he puts it on a stand where it gives light for everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they will see the good things you do and praise your Father in heaven.
(Matthew 5:14-16)
