Our Mission

 

St Theresa’s Mission – What does it mean to you?

Our mission “To do the little things well”  is inspired by our patron saint – St Theresa of Lisieux.

Here at St Theresa’s, part of our vision is to be a school that lives the Gospel values through our thoughts, words and actions, every day, in every little way.

 

 

Our Vision

• To be a school that lives the Gospel Values through our thoughts, words and actions, every day, in every little way;
• To be the best;
• To educate our children to reach their full potential and to be brilliant;
• To ignite a love of learning, curiosity and interests;
• To inspire our children to have ambition for themselves;
• To be a school that inspires, encourages and values every individual

 

‘To do the little things well’

The children of St Theresa’s reviewed our school mission at the start of the year 2018. The children were asked the question what does our mission – ‘to do the little things well’ mean to you.

The children came up with a number or different responses and they wrote what each response meant to them and how they would live the mission in St Theresa’s on a daily basis.

 

Be more like Jesus through:

Working hard

• always try our best
• accept mistakes and learn from them
• have pride in all we do

 

Have Good Manners

• Say please and thank you
• listen when others are speaking
• open doors for adults and our school friends

 

Respect

• other children and adults
• speak kind words
• listen to others
• listen and keep listening
• treat others as we would like to be treated
• accept different opinions

 

Care

• help others when down
• look out for each other

 

Kindness

• Think of others
• help others
• do little things everyday
• show love daily
• welcome others
• Support and encourage everyone
• kind hands
• when you fall out forgive

 

This is our mission at St Theresa’s Catholic Primary School

 

Love one another, enjoy coming to school, have fun and achieve more each day and you will do those little things well!

 

As part of our Mission review in 2017, we created a beautiful whole school piece of art work. Each child and staff member added their finger print to the template of a cross, with different colours to represent each different class.

 

St. Theresa’s aims to provide a caring, Christian atmosphere in which all children are encouraged to reach their full potential showing respect and love for one another.
