Our School Value This Term: Love
This term, we are exploring the value of Love—a vital part of building strong relationships, showing kindness, and creating a caring school community. The Beatles famously sang, “All you need is love,” reminding us that love is something everyone needs and can also give. At the heart of love is God’s example to us. The Bible tells us, “We love because He first loved us” (1 John 4:19). God’s love is generous, patient, and unconditional—and it’s through understanding His love that we learn how to love ourselves and others. Whether it’s through a kind word, a helping hand, or simply being there for someone, we can each play a part in making our school a place where love is lived out every day.
