What Our Purpose means
“Courage means perseverance to me.”
JB student
“Courageous exploration - that’s beyond the comfort zone. It’s spontaneous, extraordinary.”
EP student
According to the words of our favourite song: ‘Soon there were two, who were joined by a few’.
Alice Smith started a movement with just two people. That single brave act sparked a positive chain reaction. She inspired other families to join her on her journey, creating a nurturing environment for generations of learners and a home away from home for thousands of families.
“Courageous exploration can mean different things to different people.”
EP student
“Makes me excited and maybe a little nervous.”
In that same vein, we keep the Alice Smith spirit alive by building a nurturing community that encourages our students to explore the world with courage, curiosity and compassion.
To build a better world together.
EP student
“Being courageous embodies almost everything.
It’s being the best you can be times two.”
EP teacher
“Courage – that’s important. There is always something new so we must be courageous. Courageous in the everyday.”
Professional services staff
“In the future, people in high places, you will ask them where did they go to school and they’ll be like Alice Smith. I’ve no doubt they will say that if Alice Smith are able to do this.”
Parent with three children across JB and EP campuses
“‘Being courageous’, ‘exploration’ - these are all very important things. Explorationthey need to be open to trying new things. The courage to speak their mind. Asian kids so often don’t…we should encourage them.”
