"Believe, belong, be happy; every child, every chance, every day."
Our vision is inspired by the relationship between Jesus and Peter. Jesus loved and valued Peter unconditionally, accepting him just as he was. He guided, nurtured and inspired Peter, believing in him even when Peter doubted himself. Peter, in turn, learnt from his mistakes and found the courage to take risks, strengthened by his trust and faith in Jesus. Through this relationship, Peter discovered a deep sense of belonging, family and self-worth. With Jesus’ support and guidance, he flourished — building strong foundations that enabled him to lead a happy and fulfilling life.
