- WHY CHOOSE US?The ability to walk into a school and genuinely “feel” what the atmosphere is like due to the school’s ethos, is critical to any decision making process.We Make Learning FunYour child will embrace learning and explore their strengthsLearning is our central purpose and we set high expectations and have a deep belief in every student to learn and to achieve high standards.
Our students are the center of all learning and we aim to provide them with a continuous learning journey where they will be engaged in a varied curriculum with relevant learning experiences and a wide range of learning tools.We are a Safe EnvironmentYour child will be safe, secure and supportedWe recognize that building character is as important as developing intellect. We have created an inspiring social and emotional learning environment which equips our young people with the skills needed to take advantage of the opportunities and rise to the challenges of our ever-changing world. Our programs help every student understand and develop their unique character strengths the same way that they study every other subject. They learn how to apply these to their studies, and cultural pursuits in a safe and supporting environment.A Balanced EducationYour child’s confidence and sense of belonging will increase.Students feel a greater sense of belonging and have a higher self-esteem when they take part in structured learning with diversity. This includes our artist-in-residence program and other activities such as class trips with enriched cultural experiences. In addition, opportunities we provide make for a more motivated and engaged group of students, which leads to a happier and more cohesive school.
The benefits of these activities have been extensively researched and students who participate develop higher academic results, better relationships at school, and are more likely to continue on to higher education.Ethos and ValuesWe look out for each otherWe have continued to develop an exceptional learning environment which provides each and every one of our students with the best possible education and sends them into tomorrow as confident, committed and compassionate members of the global community.Our diverse learning community flourishes within and outside of our campus.Our values of acceptance, respect and inclusion are our primary focus and our cultural diversity is welcomed and celebrated.Pride and BelongingOur students take pride in being part of the schoolOur students have a strong sense of pride and belonging, enjoy learning and are challenged and engaged. These young people will work in occupations not yet created, use technology not yet invented, however, will be able to draw upon the strong foundations and values that will always be part of our school's strong foundation.Our TeachersWe will teach your child HOW to think, not WHAT to thinkOur teachers have an in-depth knowledge of their teaching areas and a wide understanding of the students in their care. They know the learning styles, interests, family environment and what makes our students tick. They encourage students to accept responsibility for their own learning and teach them how to become lifelong learners, thus setting them on the path for success after their schooling has finished.Visit us in PersonMake an appointment today to learn more first hand and see us in action.Phone (480) 951-3190Finally, while all of the above is important, we encourage prospective families and members of our community to take the time to visit us in person.It is when you attend one of our School Days or take a personal tour and meet our students and staff and speak with other parents, that you will experience our true ”feel,” our culture, and what makes us the school of choice.
