As a Christian family, together, we realise our God-given ability to change the world. Our vision is highly aspirational for our children and community. Within this short statement hides the huge work we need to do together to ensure our children have the confidence, knowledge and skills to go into the world and make a positive difference.
Our Christian family is everyone involved in the school as we are all intrinsically linked. We need each other and our Lord to work towards everyone flourishing. 'so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. So it is with Christ's body. We are many parts of one body, and we all belong to each other.
In the same way we who are many are one body in Christ and individually members of one another.' We believe that everyone has been given a gift from God founded on Ephesians (4:4-9) that says: 'There is one Lord, one faith, one baptism; there is one God and Father of all people, who is Lord of all, works through all, and is in all.
Each one of us has received a special gift in proportion to what Christ has given.'
