Our Values
At St. Michael’s we hold to five Christian Values that are born from our Christian Vision; for students and staff to grow in wisdom and stature as Christ did and these govern all that we do. They were each chosen by students and influence the way our students and staff behave in and out of school.
Our Christian Values are firmly rooted in Christian teaching. They are not abstract ideas we place on our walls; they are concrete virtues we live out from our heart. Our students recognise that they are founded upon and link to the teaching and example of Jesus.
