Cultural Development

Through Cultural Education we endeavour to :

• provide opportunities for students to explore their own cultural assumptions and values
• present authentic accounts of the attitudes, values and traditions of diverse cultures
• address discrimination on the grounds of race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, age and other criteria and promote racial and other forms of equality
• extend students’ knowledge and use of cultural imagery and language
• recognise and nurture particular gifts and talents
• provide opportunities for students to participate in literature, drama, music, art, crafts and other cultural events and encouraging students to reflect on their significance
• develop partnerships with outside agencies and individuals to extend students’ cultural awareness, for example, theatre, museum, concert and gallery visits, resident artists, foreign exchanges
