Curiosity:  

  • Curiosity is essential for personal growth and development as it helps us to understand the world around us, to solve problems and to innovate.
  • We encourage our students to be confidently curious about the world around them, to ask challenging questions and be open to new experiences and differing views.

Ambition:

  • Ambition is empowering and hopeful, we encourage students to be ambitious in their goals and dreams. Together, we believe ‘we can’!
