An environment that promotes personal growth, wellbeing and positive relationships. Our goal is to have every student leave the best person they can be - kind, connected and passionate about learning. The development of this environment and school culture is supported by our three school values:
Respect: for self, for others, and the environment
Connect - with each other, the school, the local community and in learning
Learn - Develop and acquire knowledge, skills, and attitudes to learn and get along with others
