  • Creating a Diverse Growth Platform
    Creating a Diverse Growth Platform ANNUAL REPORT 2008 Cover Rationale We’re in the business of education, of moulding our students, shaping their dreams and instilling them with the skills and knowledge so as to ensure they reach their full potential and realise their ambitions for the future. This year’s cover utilises plasticine as a symbol of the way we shape our students to be the best they can be. Plasticine, in its original form, is malleable whilst still retaining its form once sculpted, and it never hardens or dries. This is truly reflected in the development and continuous learning of our students. Our way of educating is distinctive in that we take the best practices, passionate staff and years of experience to optimise the way we teach. We are influencing lives and shaping the future of our nation.
