Lasallian Principles: Inclusive Community, Respect for All Persons, Quality Education

This group focuses on making learning inclusive for all and enhancing the provision for a quality education. By recognising the importance of establishing respectful, positive and supportive relationships within an educational setting, this group hopes to foster a love of learning that will inspire and nourish the lives of the young people they work with. Our students also learn to respect all persons through working with a diverse group of very young children and learn to respond to weekly feedback from their teacher. They also learn to respect each others ideas to recognise each others strengths.
