Lifelong learner

We are always learning wherever we go.

· This means learning is a process where we continually add to our knowledge and our skills (learning to learn). We all learn in different ways and we use all of our senses. We need the skills and thinking tools to help us gain appropriate information and form new knowledge.

Excellence

We do our best at all times

· This means we know what we are learning and what the next steps are in our learning. We set goals for ourselves. We all have different strengths and weaknesses and can identify these so we can improve. We take pride in what we do.

Actively Involved

We join in and share our ideas

· This means we listen carefully to others, consider other people’s views and share our ideas with others. We use language, symbols and text to do this. We participate in a variety of activities at school and in the community.

Relationships We care for ourselves, others and our environment

· This means we show self respect and treat others how we would like to be treated. We help others to do their best and know that winning and losing are valuable experiences. We know about other people’s cultures and value the differences. We consider other’s points of view. We keep our school clean and tidy.

Now and in the future

We start now and we don’t give up

· We can learn from our mistakes. We can look to the past to see how rapidly change takes place. This means that we need to be prepared for change in the future. media type="custom" key="6157067" media type="custom" key="5421151"
