Our School motto, We grow, learn and achieve by following Christ, at its very heart encourages strong links between school, home, and parish, where all children are nurtured within a supportive Christian environment to reach their full potential spiritually, morally, academically, and socially.
We are very proud of our bespoke, innovative Connected Curriculum which permeates the school. In striving for academic excellence, we encourage our children to be independent learners and to develop enquiring minds to face the rigor and challenge of an ever-changing world. Our children are welcoming, courteous, enthusiastic, and articulate. They take great pride in their school and are excellent ambassadors for our community.
We firmly believe that every one of our children, made in God’s image and likeness, is unique and deserves our unreserved effort to discover their true giftedness. We recognize that, with a strong moral compass, based on the teachings of Jesus Christ, as well as high expectations in all aspects of school life, they will make their mark on our ever-changing world.
We believe that St. Vincent’s School exists to be a vibrant, worshipping, and welcoming community, based on the gospel values of love, truth, and justice. We strive to acknowledge the needs of everyone and to encourage each person to achieve their full potential as we travel together on our faith journey, learning from our many cultural backgrounds.
We aim to do this by:
- Fostering a life of faith through the experience of a wide variety of prayer and liturgy
- Developing Catholic practice
- Encouraging social and moral values, which enable the children to respect themselves and others
- Continuing to develop a partnership with parents, parish, and community
- Providing a stimulating learning environment
- Showing a generosity of spirit in relationships
- Reviewing and evaluating our method and practices.
We are a sign of God’s presence to each person we meet and we aim to create an environment where each person, regardless of race religion, color, sex, age, language, ability, job, background, or family circumstance, feels valued and encouraged to develop a sense of worth, dignity, security, and belonging.
