Love

God is love. We are created out of God’s overflowing love; we find our destiny in God’s love.

Love is a very important part of our school. Love underpins everything that we do. It is very much the ‘why’ of who we are. Love is evident in our relationships with each other and in our actions to support our community and our world.

Through fostering this love, we encourage children to be outward looking and to become courageous advocates of change. This goes beyond simply knowing about issues; it is about taking action, challenging injustice and becoming agents of change.

Togetherness

God is a community of love. We find our fulfilment in becoming a community of love.

By emphasising the value of unity, we create a sense of togetherness which supports and celebrates individuality, reinforcing a sense of belonging. Pupils are actively encouraged to recognise the value of every individual and to embrace diversity. There is a tangible sense of acceptance within our school.

We recognise the importance of children understanding that togetherness is at-oneness and not sameness. Though we recognise there will be times when we disagree, we are rooted in a genuine shared love, where we encourage children to forgive and rebuild relationships.

Aspiration

In God’s community of love we are uniquely precious, called to make our unique contribution to God’s world.

All members of the school community are encouraged work hard to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to flourish. We celebrate the uniqueness of individuals and that we have all been made in God’s image with talents and dreams which we aim to nurture. With God’s help we can achieve great things.

We encourage children to persevere, develop resilience and achieve their best.

We foster a love of learning from the very onset with a focus on developing self-belief and confidence.

Through this, children can take their place in the world, becoming the individuals God created them to be, positively contributing to the life of the school, and to the local and global community.

Inspiring all to shine
