Partnership with parents means the school works with families, recognising parents as primarily responsible for the nurture and education of their children.
What does the partnership involve?
The partnership includes communication about learning and wellbeing, shared expectations, prayer, community participation and opportunities for parents to contribute to school life.
Why this matters for parents
Students benefit when home and school communicate clearly and work with consistency, trust and mutual respect.
Learning through the lens of Christ
Covenant exists to assist parents in the Christian nurture of their children. The school does not replace the family or church, but works alongside them within its educational role.
In the classroom and beyond
Parents may participate through Parents in Partnership, community events, working bees and other volunteering opportunities, subject to current needs and child-safety requirements.
