Arundale is a unique school and we are proud of ourselves and each other. Within all we do we champion our H.E.A.R.T. values:

HARDWORKING - to work with energy & commitment to be diligent.

EQUITY - to recognise everyone's individual needs and support these effectively in an inclusive environment.

ASPIRATIONAL - to develop lifeskills to achieve ones hopes and dreams.

RESILIENT - to show strength and determination even when things are difficult.

TEAMWORK - To work together with others to achieve shared goals.

By living and breathing our 5 values we endeavour to become better people and strive to improve ourselves, each other and contribute positively to society.
