We believe a values-led education gives young children essential guidelines for life that will help them in any undertaking at any age. We live our values through every-day practice in our service. By modelling our values and principles we actively demonstrate to our children how they can become the best version of themselves.
Our Christian Ideals
Start with Love
Christianity teaches us that love is the most important principle to live. Through embracing love and connectedness, children learn that they are not alone. Knowing they are part of a larger support network helps develop a sense of trust, belonging and resilience.
Acceptance and Inclusion
Jesus taught us to love everyone; and not discriminate. “Love one another. As I have loved you.” He treated everyone equally and with respect and truth. This ideal helps us explore what it means to love someone, to support them, to share with them, to be accepting of people who are different to us (e.g. other cultures, special needs, different families), to have empathy, to make sacrifices, to live in harmony.
Treating Others Well
We promotes a universal message of peace, thoughtfulness and respect for others including the environment. Jesus taught us to be forgiving and not vengeful. “do to others what you would have them do to you.” It teaches us to pause before doing something hurtful or something we might regret.
Acceptance and Inclusion
We are an inclusive service and accept all denominations. We treat everyone equally and with respect and truth. This ideal helps us explore what it means to love someone, to support them, to share with them, to be accepting of people who are different to us (e.g. other cultures, special needs, different families), to have empathy, to make sacrifices, to live in harmony.
Being thankful
We teach and help children understand the importance of gratitude and being appreciative of what we have.
