Waridi Cottage is founded on a Christian ethos of love, compassion, integrity, respect, humility and service. It shapes how we learn, how we lead and how we treat one another, and we welcome children and families of every faith and background.
“By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”
John 13:35
Prayer, reflection and gratitude, and Christian teaching lived out in everyday life.
Kindness, honesty, responsibility, courage and respect, following the example of Jesus.
Faith expressed through empathy, generosity and meaningful service to others.
Every belief respected, every family welcome, everyone belonging.
Heart, mind, body and spirit, growing together.
Education is not only about what a child knows, but who they become.
