The Capstone School

Our Ethos

The values that guide everything we do

What We Believe

At The Capstone School, our ethos is built on nurturing the whole child in an environment of love, acceptance, and excellence.

Self-Esteem

Low student-teacher ratios allow individual recognition and nurturing. We foster a bond of acceptance, respect, and trust among children, teachers, and administrators, prioritising emotional development and social skills.

Values

We employ a loving, Christian-centred approach with dedicated attention from Pre-Primary through Primary Phase graduation. Faith, kindness, and respect form the foundation of our school community.

Curriculum

The National Curriculum with a Reggio Emilia inspired teaching philosophy encourages extended exploration, problem-solving in small groups, and cooperative learning experiences.

Analytical Thinking

Teachers function as co-learners and collaborators alongside the child, viewing each student as filled with potential, competent and capable of building their own theories.

Individualised Learning

Children progress at an individualised pace and are assessed on a continuous basis in a non-intrusive manner. Regular parent meetings ensure ongoing communication and partnership.

Integrity

A system of shared values, rather than one of restrictive rules, guides our approach to discipline. We emphasise emotional expression and problem-solving as life skills.
