At the heart of Melbourne Primary School’s ethos are now the core values of Grow, Explore and Achieve Together. These values are the foundation upon which we strive to cultivate curious, resilient, and collaborative learners who are equipped to navigate life beyond the school gates.
Grow: We are committed to nurturing the personal growth of every pupil. We support each child in achieving their individual goals, encouraging them to strive for their personal best throughout their school journey. By focusing on the development of the whole child, we foster emotional well-being, social confidence, and academic progress—empowering every pupil to grow into their unique potential. In our inclusive environment, every success—big or small—is celebrated as part of a shared journey toward holistic development.
Explore: Curiosity and a love of learning are at the heart of our educational approach. We inspire pupils to ask questions, think critically, and immerse themselves in hands-on, experiential learning that ignites their natural wonder about the world. Through a curriculum rich in knowledge, culture, and creativity, we aim to nurture a lifelong appreciation for the world and a desire to explore it.
Achieve: We believe every child has the ability to succeed. Through a challenging, knowledge-rich curriculum and a consistent focus on progress, we empower pupils with the essential knowledge, skills, and mindsets to become confident, independent, and responsible members of society. By celebrating both individual and collective achievements, we build pride and self-belief that drives our children to reach their full potential.
Togetherness is the thread that runs through all our values. The collaboration and connection within our school community is central to everything we do.
These values have been formally ratified by our governors and at Trust level, and we are excited to move forward with our mission to “Grow, Explore, Achieve”—together.
