We Believe
That parents are the experts on their children
That teachers are collaborators, researchers and nurturers who are dedicated to supporting children and parents.
In the extraordinary capability and intelligence of children
In children’s ability to construct their own knowledge.
As a school, we believe in making visible and giving voice to the rich potential and talent of children, and in the right of all children to have an environment where this talent and potential is respected and nourished.
