We never stand still. We know that life is a never-ending adventure into the future. We strive for continuous improvement through our pioneering spirit of innovation and creativity.
We are only as good as all of us together. We are rooted in our community because we know that we are nothing without the people who consistently and unconditionally support us. Our attitude is always friendly, supportive and caring. We subscribe to the African principle of Ubuntu which propagates that ‘I am because you are’.
We love what we do and we do it diligently. We are blessed with a great sense of fun. We play as hard as we work and know that laughter is the sweetest sound of all.
We promise our stakeholders (pupils, educators, parents, the community, government) accountability, consistency, discipline, efficiency, punctuality, quality and responsibility. We do not tolerate shoddy and unprofessional work. We pay attention to detail because we know that it’s the little things that matter in life.
