Our school strives to be a place where children feel valued, loved, listened to and secure. We believe that by working hard to be a community that strives to live and relate according to Jesus example and direction, then we actually go a long way to achieving that aim.

As the school is also owned and operated by it’s parents, all policies and procedures have been designed by the parents, creating a strong sense of ownership and ensuring that there is strong cohesion between parents, staff and students. Christian faith also gives us a unity of direction and shared values and aspirations.

We strive to be connected with our community and are open to all families who desire an education that is purposeful, rigorous and informed by faith. We accept students of all ability levels and provide assistance to low income families to ensure that the school is open to anyone who values the benefits of a Christian Education for their family.
