VIRTUES

Walking in the Footsteps of Jesus encourages us to live out the four Virtues of our school - to Be Kind, Show Respect, Have Gratitude and to Seek Excellence.

 
Our Virutes programme was developed in 2019 when we began our journey with a Ministry of Education programme called Positive Behaviour for Learning (PB4L).  Over the years, we have consulted with our students, staff and parents to create this framework which helps us to develop the virtues that we would most like our students to embody.  Each Monday morning, we start the week off with prayer and a Virtue focus.  This is then explicitly taught in class over a fortnight.  Students who live the Virtues are celebrated with a special Virtues Certificate during our Virtues Assembly.  Parents and whānau are all welcomed to come along.
