Together, we become stronger in our aspirations, hearts, and minds, enabling us to "soar on wings like eagles, run without growing tired, walk without feeling weak." 40:31 in Isaiah. Our Behaviour Policy, Rewards, and Sanctions are actually built upon our WAYS. In our hopes, hearts, and brains, we get stronger as a group: with. PRIDE MANTRA: "Together we become stronger through: PRIDE in our selves; PRIDE in our school; PRIDE in our learning; and PRIDE in our future." This is said at the beginning of the day, during some forms of collective prayer, and at other times as needed. Spirituality, according to St. John's School, is the ability to look within and outside of ourselves to embrace and transform all of our destinies as a community.
