AchievementAyyan Jiva - Year 7

Self-AwarenessAlexander Simpson - Year 8

One of the most important ASPIRE values is self-awareness. Self-awareness means to me not only being aware of others' actions but also being aware of your own.

ProfessionalismDixit Khimji - Year 8

The meaning of professionalism to me means that you need to be impressive in a hard-working way and do what you're told to do by trustworthy people for your benefit.

IntegrityHeba Naseef - Year 8

Integrity is the honesty of doing the right thing even when someone is not watching.

RespectMohammed Atif - Year 9

To me, respect is being positive to everyone around you and just being a kind person - it is something that comes easy to me. I believe that respect is not just part of the ASPIRE code but it is one of those things that people have to show regularly.

EndeavourAbigail Harper - Year 9

Endeavour represents working hard and trying your best all the time to achieve your goals. I think endeavour is one of the most important values as it means pushing yourself to be the best in and out of your school life.
