Our School

​

We at Applecroft Public School prepare students for the future through total and continuous growth, emphasizing care and concern for self and others. Our reciprocal relationship between the school and community promotes respect for the environment, enthusiasm for learning, and a strong sense of self confidence and security. We are committed to assure learning experiences that will assist our students to achieve their greatest potential and adapt and adjust to a diverse and ever changing society.

In order to meet the needs of our diverse student population, principals, teachers, and parents collaborate to provide the highest quality of education possible to individual children regardless of race, color, creed, diversity of gender, or intellectual ability.

Our staff continue to focus on our students as individuals. At Applecroft education does not mean just teaching people what they do not know. On the contrary, it means training them to think, to explore and question ideas and events. It is a continual and challenging task to be done by kindness, by watching, by warning, by precept and by praise, but above all, by example. Example has a great impact on the way children behave and what they value at home and at school. Children watch adults closely and learn many ways of acting by imitating the actions of adults.

We are very proud of the way our students have represented our school on educational trips, at sporting events and during special activities and encourage them to continue to look to their role models, their parents and teachers as they develop their own sense of identity.
