The involvement of parents in all aspects of school life is actively encouraged (See the link below). The school year is shaped to include opportunities for musical presentations, drama, celebration, involvement in the local community, and visits by speakers and performers. We set a particular value on the tolerance and understanding of all faiths and on building a community of genuinely equal opportunity.
