Roots (our Christian values):

• ‘Encourage one another and build each other up.’ (Thessalonians 5:11) – friendship

• ‘For the body itself is not made up of only one part but of many parts.’ (1 Corinthians 12: 14) – citizenship (koinonia)

These roots give our children the ‘Wings to fly’. This means:

• The ability to live in and value a diverse society.
