Our Parents
We consider the primary years to be an extension of the family unit.
Parent participation is therefore an important part of the school and is positively encouraged. The school seeks to have positive relationships with its parents, and the parents in turn will find the school’s openness an expression of our faith in them as co-educators of their children.
We invite all parents to be involved in the life of the school, and to participate in the educational experience of their child.
Our SMART values
