Home School Agreement

Our home school agreement is underpinned by our school mission statement:

Thrive, Learn, Empower

As families you are your child’s first teacher. You play a crucial role in helping your child to learn, grow and flourish. Your child will achieve more when we as a school and you as a family are working in tandem. This agreement provides a framework for the development of such a partnership from which your child will benefit. We want to work as a community.
