Our Federated Schools are guided and inspired by our six biblical values.
Our principles influence all facets of school life and have an impact on everyone's outcomes thanks to our Christian School Vision.
Our efforts are guided by the ideals so that everyone can thrive and enjoy "life in all its fullness."
4–8 in 1 Corinthians 13: Love is kind and patient; it is not envious, arrogant, or conceited; it is not impolite, selfish, or irritable; it does not keep a record of wrongs; and it is not content with evil but content with the truth.
Love never dies.
4–8 in 1 Corinthians 13 However, the body is made up of numerous parts rather than just one.
Where would the sense of hearing be if the entire body were an eye?
However, each and every element of the body has been positioned in it exactly as God intended.
According to Ephesians 4:15, we'll proclaim the truth in love.
In order to become like Christ, who is the head, we will mature in every aspect.
Colossians 3:13 says to forgive one another instead of harbouring resentment.
