“You are the chosen people of God: He loved you and chose you for His own. So then, you must clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. And to these qualities add love, which binds all things together in perfect unity.”

 St. Paul’s Letter to the Colossians, Chapter 3, v 12 and 14.

• Promoting positive behaviours and high standards across the school.
• Having high expectations in work ethic, good manners and uniform to create a positive ethos.

• Discussing undesirable/unwanted behaviours we do not expect in school and their consequences/actions.
