Ethos & Values

""Love one another as I have loved you" (John 13:34)"

We value everyone; children, colleagues and parents as the unique people that they are. We develop compassion, tolerance, empathy and co-operation in our children. We encourage our children to look beyond themselves in order to develop spiritually and creatively. We believe in ourselves and encourage children to believe in themselves too. We acknowledge our weaknesses as well as our strengths. We endeavour to nurture a love of God through Jesus Christ in all our children. We acknowledge that the quality of education that we give to our children will be a determining factor in how their lives unfold. We encourage children to give their best at all times and not to be content giving less. We praise our children for their efforts. We believe that all things are possible! We encourage children to set goals, take risks and make decisions.

Notre Dame Prep has a Catholic ethos; it is a Roman Catholic school nurturing a love of God through Jesus Christ, while welcoming children of all faiths or none. The ethos emphasizes love, care, trust, kindness and respect, with activities such as visits to St John's Cathedral and Mass in school.
