Community
There are many ways to define and
look at "COMMUNITY".
|
|
In all aspects and definitions there's
a clear message that a College which recognises
and values a HEALTHY
PARTNERSHIP with its Community is well placed
to develop that key goal of CONTINUOUS
IMPROVEMENT in Student Learning. At Lilydale
Heights we see that healthy partnership as essential
to the life of the College.
Why? Well, it allows us to build on the "DYNAMIC"
that does exist between parents and school. It also
allows for greater opportunities for better student
engagement in their learning and importantly it
permits the development of new links with groups
not only in education but in business and the vocational
and Local Government and related agencies.
For these reasons the College actively promotes
community links with and involvement in student
learning and the sharing of common goals and responsibilities.
The development of a fully rewarded learner where
the ACADEMIC,
the CULTURAL and
CIVIC and the
SOCIAL are balanced
and fully developed is not just an end in itself.
Lilydale Heights sees achieving this will of itself
help promote a BETTER
COMMUNITY for the future. The College likewise
accepts its responsibilities to help create greater
community acceptance and understanding of the GLOBAL
COMMUNITY and break down barriers created
by ignorance and prejudice and to help appreciate
difference. |
