Our new school Vision and Values statement represents how we want our school to be.

Vision:

At Hawkesdale P12 college we set high expectations and provide real opportunities to learn in a safe, supportive and enjoyable learning environment. We encourage kindness, curiosity and confidence as important personal qualities. We want our school to be a place where there is a strong sense of calmness, belonging and fairness, and a place where students are preparing for a successful life beyond the school gate.

Values:

At Hawkesdale P12 we show respect by using positive language when talking with others, through active listening and participation, and by being kind to everyone around us

At Hawkesdale P12 we show responsibility by being prepared for learning and attempting all activities in a timely manner, taking ownership of the actions we take and their consequences, and by looking after our school environment

At Hawkesdale P12 we show resilience by learning from our mistakes and having a growth mindset, by trying our best and getting things done even when they feel difficult, and by being adaptable to change.


The intent of these words below was developed following the 2025 School Strategic Review and was co-authored across semester two of last year with input from students, ES staff, school councillors, parents, teaching staff and the Review panel - hopefully everyone involved will be able to see their contribution to the collective statements below. Establishing a new school vision is central to our School Strategic Plan over the next five years, and to promoting what our school stands for in the wider community.

We all need to work hard to ensure that these statements are reflected in the daily life of our school; we all have a shared responsibility to model and promote the vision and values that define how we want to be as a school.
