PRE-PREP & JUNIOR SCHOOL CALENDAR SUMMER TERM 2017
A Statement of Intent Thousands have come here before me but I remain special. I walk on firm foundations; my horizons are broad. I am challenged to succeed, to learn for life, to find and use my talents for the good of the whole community. We share many more beliefs than differences; we celebrate the freedom to express both. Our rights match our responsibilities closely. My happiness comes from a loving home and a caring school; together they forge a team in which I grow quick to praise, slow to judge and fit to lead when called.
