Forming men of good character
Boys flourish when they cultivate respect , responsibility and reverence .
We aspire to cultivate boys of good character who value service to others ; boys who aim high but keep their feet on the ground . Our education model is focused on developing the whole boy . This extends beyond the classroom , acknowledging the valuable development that takes place through sport , outdoor education , service and co-curricular activities . We aim to provide an environment that allows each boy to : – Be the best he can be – Embody our values of respect , responsibility , and reverence – Experience learning where virtues such as honesty , gratitude , forgiveness , humility , restraint , personal responsibility , and others are explored to drive moral growth and nurture character formation
