Our school is very proud of being named after Nelson Mandela. He is, and always will be a strong influence on our school values and beliefs. We are an inclusive school and all of us are driven by Nelson Mandela's positive values. Nelson Mandela believed strongly in respect, understanding and fairness.
He wanted others to believe in his vision of a fairer world. Our children proudly talk about his values and we all show his values by our actions. Nelson Mandela inspires us all to do our best and follow his words: "There is no passion to be found playing small - in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living."
