Exbourne Primary School Vision and Values
Our Vision Statement
Live, love, learn.
Our vision statement may seem simple, but it's depth of meaning runs through everything we do at Exbourne Primary School.
Live : we encourage the children to think about how they are living their lives, how they treat others, how they treat their school, community and environment. Through work with charities and school initiatives we are developing good local and global citizens of the future.
Love : love can be shown in many ways, love for your family and friends, love for your school and love for yourself. Love thy neighbour as yourself, Matthew 22:39 typifies our philosophy of love.
Learn : every child in our care is challenged to be ambitious, make mistakes and then achieve. This is to learn, to change the long term memory of our children to accept new information.
