At Orana Catholic Primary School, each person is an integral part of a vibrant learning culture where everyone gives generously, shows respect and strives for excellence.
We take responsibility for contributing to a just and harmonious community by living the values of Generosity, Respect and Excellence.
Generosity is selflessly giving our time, effort and attention without expecting anything in return. Generosity is evident when:
• we are welcoming, inclusive and promote a sense of belonging
• we are thoughtful about the needs of others
• we notice when someone needs help
• we give freely without expecting a reward
Respect is honouring ourselves, the ideas, qualities and difference of others and our world. Respect is evident when:
• we treat others as we want to be treated
• we express feelings in a peaceful way
• we speak courteously to everyone
• we bring honour to ourselves, our families and our school
• we recognise the achievements of each person
• we build positive relationships
• we show equal justice and fairness
Excellence is nurturing a spirit of determination and persistence to continually strive to be the best version of ourselves. Excellence is evident when:
• we do our best to develop our talents and share them with others
• we have high expectations of what we can achieve
• we take risks and experiment with the way we learn
• we work hard to do our best work
• we celebrate our achievements
