Values & Virtues

At the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus teaches the people those values that build up the kingdom of God.  Assembly and reflection themes at St. Bernadette's Catholic Primary School are rooted in The Beatitudes and Catholic Pupil Profile. The Values we promote through collective worship are the foundation of our school ethos and help us to live by the Gospel Values.

Children at St. Bernadette's Catholic Primary School are growing to be . . .

Grateful for their own gifts, for the gift of other people, and for the blessings of each day; and generous with their gifts, becoming men and women for others.

Attentive to their experience and to their vocation; and discerning about the choices they make and the effects of those choices.

Compassionate towards others, near and far, especially the less fortunate; and loving by their just actions and forgiving words.

Faith-filled in their beliefs and hopeful for the future.

Eloquent and truthful in what they say of themselves, the relations between people, and the world.

Learned, finding God in all things; and wise in the ways they use their learning for the common good.

Curious about everything; and active in their engagement with the world, changing what they can for the better.

Intentional in the way they live and use the resources of the earth, guided by conscience; and prophetic in the example they set to others.
