The Wilson Primary School

Community

 

Community is an essential element of Wilson and the Federation.

The African saying 'it takes a village to raise a child’ is at the heart of our educational vision. As a school, we want to ‘raise’ our children, to give them the best opportunities to shine, to be healthy, happy, resilient, resourceful and inquisitive.  We know that school is not the only source of knowledge and skill available to a child in order for them to become successful. We truly believe that the entire school community must be involved with our education; to care, to nurture and celebrate our children in order for them to thrive and grow in a safe and healthy environment. All stakeholders need to play a part in helping our child to develop.

We actively encourage wider involvement from our community and we invite a range of individuals and organisations to come into school and further enhance the curriculum. Our children are also provided with opportunities to widen their learning through trips and visits and spending time within the community.
