Key Values
There are 5 Key Values which underpin all that we do at
Holy Trinity Rosehill.
They inform our vision, development, provision and practice.
These are:
Emotional Well Being: Our children and families feel secure in their relationships with us. We make them feel emotionally connected so they can make secure attachments
Love of Learning: We support our children and families to develop their effectiveness as lifelong learners. In our school community we are all learners who recognise that it is ok to make mistakes.
Inclusivity: We welcome all children and families as equal partners and learn from them. We adapt and improve our provision to ensure it ‘enables’ all.
Personal Journeys: Everyone comes to our school with a journey to share so we listen and use it to celebrate individuality.
Creativity: We celebrate imagination, problem solving, unique thinking and artistic creativity. We take the lead from individuals and their inspiration.
