Our Philosophy

Sassafras Primary School's philosophy and policies reflect the belief that:
Picture
  • All children have the ability to learn and that this ability is enhanced in an atmosphere which is positive, caring, stimulating and secure. 

  • The development of self-esteem, social skills and life skills such as communication, independence, problem solving, a sense of inquiry and creativity is fundamental to success.
     
  • The development of core skills in numeracy, literacy and learning technology is a high educational priority.
     
  • Every child should be encouraged to achieve their personal best through a broad, challenging educational program.

  • The school is a learning community which fosters a shared partnership between children, staff, parents and the wider community.
     
  • In a cooperative, non-threatening environment based on mutual respect, students can share responsibility for their own learning and behaviour.
     
  • Successes and efforts should be acknowledged and celebrated.
