Vision & Values
Our Vision
Dream Big, Aim High, Make Difference
St Mildred’s inspires our children within a rich and creative learning journey, where they can ‘Dream big, aim high and make a difference.’ Our vision and values influence all decisions enabling our community to flourish.
We strive to create a lasting impression on our children by actively engaging them in their learning and encouraging them to aim high in all they do.
Our school environment provides children with challenging and exciting learning opportunities that ensure they are empowered to think and question.
"Tell me and I'll forget,
Show me and I may remember,
Involve me and I'll understand"
(Native American saying)
At St Mildred's we are committed to:
- bringing out the very best in our children and equipping them with the skills and independence they will need for the future.
- placing great emphasis on the well-being and personal development of every child and encourage them to have self –discipline, tolerance and a sense of responsibility for others and the environment.
- Providing a safe, happy, healthy and friendly environment, which enables children to develop their self-esteem and decision-making skills enabling them to make a positive contribution to school life and beyond
- Instilling a lifelong love of learning and promote high expectations, celebrating both success and effort
- Providing an inspiring, fun, engaging curriculum, with both challenge and support, in and beyond the classroom
- Working hand-in-hand with parents/carers and members of the St. Mildred’s community to maintain and develop a school of which we can all be proud.
Our Values
As a community we decided which values meant the most to us and together we came to our 'HEART'.
These 5 values can be applied to a variety of situations and are taught and modelled explicitly every day in and out of the classroom, collectively during and individually during Thrive provision and other interventions.
As members of our community, we live and learn by our five Values of Honesty, Enjoyment, Achievement, Respect and Team work.
