Environment & Community
The students’ involvement in community and environmental projects are an essential part of our school curriculum. Our school’s motto for our outreach arm is: “be the change you want to see in the world.” Our aim is to lead by example, to serve others, to respect other cultures and to contribute positively to society.
Each term learners are involved in an opportunity to look beyond themselves and into their surrounding community and reach out with an effort that gives of themselves. Learners donate to various charities, a newly established community centre, the SPCA and enjoy reading opportunities with another less resourced school.
Growth Mindset
Students with a growth mindset believe that ability can change as a result of effort, perseverance, and practice. You might hear them say, “Math is hard, but if I keep trying, I can get better at it.” Students with a growth mindset see mistakes as ways to learn, embrace challenges, and persist in the face of setbacks.
