At the end of last term, staff, directors, parents, carers, and friends came together to compose two statements that will be central to our direction and planning for 2024. We look forward to sharing these with you, and to working collaboratively in the new year, to implement meaningful and achievable actions for our School in 2024.
The statements relate to:
- A Culturally Nourishing School, a short narrative of the journey we would shape for each child within a culturally responsive teaching and learning frame.
- Living and Learning Together with Climate Change, a short narrative to encapsulate guiding values and practical actions that can guide our School to learn and live with the opportunities and threats of a changing climate.
These narratives centre resilience, connection and agency as key values. I would like to acknowledge the gentle and reverent smoking ceremony led by Corina Norman that grounded our explorations at the Vision and Planning Day.
