This October, our Core Essential Word is "Knowledge: Learning something new so you can be better at whatever you do."
As as school, we spend a lot of time imparting knowledge to the students who have been entrusted to our care. As educators, we strive to create "life-long learners". What we mean by that is we want your children to learn not just facts, but to develop a strong desire for knowledge so they can continue to grow as responsible members of our community.
Knowledge of facts and stats isn't a value - it is what you do with that knowledge that is important. "So you can be better at whatever you do."
Family Challenge:
This year's theme verse, really helps put this into context. "Blessed to Serve!" 1 Peter 4:10. Take some time this month to read through 1 Peter 4:10. By this point some of your children may have it memorized. How can we use the knowledge that we gain at school to better serve those around us?
