THE CHRISTIAN ETHOS AT MARAGON PRIVATE SCHOOLS
At Maragon Private Schools we believe that through faith a person is brought into a living relationship with Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit establishes this grace relationship of love and forgiveness through God’s Word.
The influence of Christian worship and prayer is critical to our Schools and it extends throughout our operations. We don’t just talk about our Christian foundation; we act on it. We seek to treat each other with love and respect because we believe each person is God’s special creation.
As members of our Maragon community, pupils,staff and parents can expect to find themselves confronted by the message of the Christian Gospel in assemblies and in the daily life of the school community. We make no apology for this. We understand however that individuals respond to the Christian message in a variety of ways and we respect and encourage that right. We accept that individuals may not respond in traditional Christian ways. While we understand and accept that not all will share our Christian faith, we expect our pupils and their parents to support and show respect for our Christian beliefs and practices.
We believe that our parents or guardians have the prime responsibility for the education of their children and we encourage the involvement of parents and families in school life. We seek to work in respectful partnerships with parents rather than in competition.
The following framework of Christian values defines the spirit of Maragon Private Schools:
BEHAVIOURAL VALUES
