It is my absolute privilege to have been trusted to develop our school, and to nurture our community. Since opening in August 2023, we have seen a significant period of expansion, which continues apace. We are very fortunate to be based in a world class learning facility but, as we have said from the beginning, a school is much more than a building. It's the people who make Rosehill, and I am proud to lead an exceptional team.
Our school vision is Rosehill: A place to learn, grow, and thrive.
A sense of place is vital to us, as we are at the heart of the local area. In addition to our school, the campus also hosts the Margaret Oliphant public library, the Community Centre, and sport and leisure facilities used by groups and teams across the county and beyond.
We value learning in all its senses, and understand that this isn’t confined to what happens in the traditional classroom. We have developed a curriculum that is designed to enable our young people to grow to be the best version of themselves. We know that we can only thrive when wellbeing, equity and inclusion are at the heart of all we do.
Our core values are respect, kindness and responsibility. These inform both our policies and our practice. Every interaction is an opportunity to influence and we actively seek opportunities to help young people build character and skills as well as qualifications.
Our first two years have been exciting, innovative, and very fast-paced. With a rapidly expanding roll and and an even bigger staff team, I imagine that session 25-26 will be similar. We will continue reflect, evaluate, and modify as we go. To this end, we value the support and input of everyone in our community.
