1. Our Core Values

Our Core Values

We are guided by core values that shape everything we do. These values reflect our commitment to fostering a positive and inclusive learning environment:

  • Collaboration: We believe in the power of cooperation between teachers, students, families, and the wider community. Working together creates a supportive network that nurtures children’s growth and development.
  • Creativity: We celebrate and encourage creativity in all its forms. Children develop their imagination, problem-solving skills, and self-expression through open-ended activities and exploration.
  • Respect: We foster a culture of care where every individual’s voice is valued and honored. We teach children to respect themselves, others, and the world around them.
  • Empathy: We cultivate compassion and kindness, teaching children to understand and appreciate different perspectives and to care for one another. This helps them develop meaningful relationships and become compassionate members of society.

Our Vision

Our vision at Fundamental is to create a model learning community where children have the space to collaborate, build relationships, discover their interests, and direct their learning. 

We strive to develop empathetic and environmentally aware problem solvers who are curious, confident, and lifelong learners.
