Community
St. Dominic's Primary School Camberwell East
Catholic schools honour the role of parents as the first and ongoing nurturers and educators of their child. In partnering with families, this life-giving relationship transforms the possibilities for each child and promotes optimal engagement, achievement and wellbeing
(Horizons of Hope Wellbeing Statement- 2017, p.8).
At St. Dominic’s, we work together to engage families and communities in partnership.
In doing this, we:
-
Work collaboratively to create and strengthen safe, child friendly environments for learning
-
Actively foster positive relationships with parents to support students to thrive in learning and life
-
Are mentors and partners in each child’s learning journey
-
Collectively contribute to the spiritual, emotional, social and cognitive development of the whole child
We value this community partnership and that family and community engagement has the greatest impact when:
-
parents and carers are engaged as co-educators of their children
-
the whole school community works strategically toward shared goals
-
building relationships is central to the educational approach of the school and is focused on: a holistic view of the child and their education, student progress, skills and motivation for learning & the home and community as environments for learning
