“Learning and Living as Children of God”
You are God’s children whom he loves. Try to be like God
Ephesians 5:1
Living as a child of God means trying to be the best person you can be, following God’s love and kindness. Life is a big adventure, and God is always there to cheer you on!
The vision for our school and within our community encompasses our Christian values and are at the heart of everything we do.
