Our Vision
Together we inspire and support all learners to succeed as connected, resilient, creative and curious thinkers.
Our vision is to provide a safe and nurturing environment in which students can enjoy learning, achieve their potential and develop the key skills they need to thrive as independent, emotionally and socially confident young adults.
We will achieve this through our mission of empowering the person. Simply put, this means that we build on existing strengths and create learning that allows our students to become confident, knowledgeable, healthy adults who are:
- Flourishing and thriving
- Independent and self-advocating
- Successful in gaining employment
- Achieving their aspirations
- Fully immersed in their communities
Our Values
- We ask lots of questions to learn more about anything and everything
- We imagine possibilities and connect ideas
- We make learning come alive by practising what we learn
- We are curious about the things we see and learn
- We are stronger together than we are alone
- We assume responsibility for our own learning
