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
