Vision and values

Our vision is ‘All students achieve their potential’.

Our values describe the way we go about our work.

• We take personal responsibility for our performance and the achievement of our students.
• We reflect the values of rangimarie (peace, serenity, calmness), and aroha (compassion/ empathy).
• We are respectful, courteous and good humoured in all our interactions and relationships.
• We are innovative and responsive to the needs of our students and their whanau/families.
• We communicate openly and honestly, and respect alternative perspectives.
• We support and encourage each other, share knowledge and ideas, and work collaboratively for the benefit of our students.
• We respect all our people and the contribution they make to the organisation.
• We support each other’s need for work/life balance.
• We value diversity and encourage individuality.
• We take the time to celebrate the successes of our students and colleagues.
• We learn from our experiences, and take responsibility for our ongoing learning.
• Vision and values of the new New Zealand Curriculum are key drivers for us in all our interactions with students and will form the basis of our pedagogy and curriculum development.
