Cedar Values
Cedar’s Heart-Led Values: Your Child Known. Your Child Cared For
We Care
At Cedar, your child is truly known. Being a small school means we can take the time to understand who your child is — their strengths, worries, interests, and hopes. We care deeply about your child’s wellbeing, happiness, and sense of safety, knowing that children learn best when they feel calm, confident, and valued. Your child is never just a name on a register here — they are part of our Cedar family.
We Are Kind
Kindness is the heartbeat of Cedar. We teach children to be kind to themselves, to each other, and to the world around them. This means nurturing self-confidence, respectful relationships, and a sense of responsibility towards our environment. In our small, caring community, kindness is noticed, modelled, and celebrated every day — helping your child grow into a thoughtful, compassionate young person.
We Are Unique
We believe there is no such thing as a “typical” child. At Cedar, learning is personal because children are. Your child’s individual learning journey is carefully supported, with personalised attention, flexibility, and encouragement. We celebrate differences, nurture strengths, and support challenges, so that your child feels accepted and empowered to be exactly who they are.
We Wonder
Curiosity is encouraged and questions are welcomed. At Cedar, your child is given the space to explore ideas, wonder about the world, and develop a genuine love of learning. Through thoughtful teaching and rich experiences, we help children become confident thinkers who are excited to discover, question, and grow — both academically and personally.
