School Ethos:
Roxboro National School promotes the full and harmonious development of all aspects of the child; intellectual, physical, cultural, moral and spiritual, in accordance with the teachings of the Catholic Church.
We promote these values in a learning community, where children can safely grow in knowledge and understanding and in the acquisition of skills, attitudes and values.
We are fully committed to offering a quality education by:
- valuing and developing the priceless potential of our staff and the children within our care;
- encouraging children to grow within the Catholic faith with the invaluable support of Home and Parish, while respecting other Faiths;
- establishing the foundations of lifelong learning;
- welcoming input from parents and the wider community to complement the skills and experience of our professional teaching staff;
It is of huge importance to us that our pupils feel included, safe and happy within their learning environment. Our aim is that all children should leave Roxboro N.S. with competence in reading, writing and numeracy, an enthusiasm for learning, a thirst for knowledge, an appreciation for their faith and the world in which they live.
Most of all, we hope that they leave with many happy memories of their primary school days here with us in Roxboro National School.
