• They need to be loved*, so it is our responsibility to treat our students with love, kindness and respect.
• They need to be guided, so it is our responsibility to model the behaviour and work ethic which we expect of them.
• They need to be encouraged and challenged. So it is our responsibility to be enthusiastic, intuitive, well prepared and flexible in our teaching.
• They need to belong, so it our responsibility to foster the values of inclusion, acceptance and tolerance, and to generate an appreciation of our collective place in the community at large.
• They need to become self-reliant, so it is our responsibility to create an environment which promotes and supports the development of independence and self-directed, life-long learning.

As a community:

• We should take pride both in our accomplishments and in the accomplishments of our fellow members.
• We should be proud of the bilingual heritage of our country and should value the acquisition of second language skills.
• We should work with the school community to generate in all members respect for ourselves, for each other, for our diversity and for the multicultural nature of our school and our country.
• We should work to generate commitment both to the school and to the broader community.
• To achieve these goals, we will work together and honour our commitments.
