Our Vision, Aims & Ethos

Vision :

‘Learn, enjoy and succeed together, for life in all its fullness.’ John 10:10

Together means supporting each other whether it is as a class, within your home/ family and helping people when they are vulnerable and need support.
This is under pinned by the verse from John 10:10 ‘I have come in order that you might have life – life in all its fullness.’

In order to achieve fullness the school and all stakeholders need to embrace the proverb 22 v6 ‘Teach children how they should live and they will remember it all their life.
