Kelsale CEVC Primary School

Together: We are in inclusive school, where everyone is welcome.   We work closely; children, parents, teachers, staff and governors to support our children in becoming the best they can be.

We believe that in working together, being respectful and compassionate towards each other, we achieve our very best.

Learn: together we learn how to be an awesome learner (Kelsale's 5 C's), learn new things, build and develop on things we know already and encourage each other to achieve our best and celebrate our successes, inspired by our new our curriculum.

Laugh: because together we feel safe, secure and valued in our school we can: have fun in our learning activities, feel confident to join in with activities and are willing to take a risk and have a go.

Shine: we are proud of and celebrate our achievements together.   We always perservere and try our very best.

Together, we believe, we learn, laugh and shine.

Our verse from the Bible (Daniel 12:3) and our school vision are intertwined.

Daniel 12:3 NLT

Those who are wise will shine as bright as the sky and those who lead many to righteousness will shine like the stars forever.  

‘Those who are wise’ - In wisdom we learn to know ourselves: to know who we are and who we want to be. We learn to use the expertise around us so we can be active learners in exploring the world further. We believe that every child can achieve this.

‘will shine like the brightness of the heavens’ - We use this wisdom about ourselves and others to ‘shine’ brightly as leaders, using the Christian values to shape our choices and to make positive contributions to society. We believe that every child can make an impact in our society.

‘and those who lead many to righteousness will shine like the stars for ever and ever.’ – through learning and laughing together, and shaped by Christian values, we believe that our children can encourage and lead themselves and others to be the best human beings they can be; creating a positive legacy which will last forever.
