Dear Students and Parents,

Greetings !

I strongly perceive that an education must equip students with the tools that enable them to adapt, and thrive, in a world characterised by change. In such an environment, only technical proficiency is not enough. Education that prepares children for life must go beyond fundamental skills to stimulate creativity, intellectual curiosity, cosmopolitan ethic and honest inquiry. Advancement and development, both personal and societal, are dependent on these elements. Innovation and progress arise from the ability to approach a challenge in a new way and offer a solution.

Education must also make the case for a pluralistic tradition in which other views, ethnicities, religions and perspectives are valued not only because that is just and good, but also because pluralism is the climate best suited for creativity, curiosity and inquiry to thrive. It must also stimulate students to consider a variety of perspectives on some of the fundamental questions posed by the human condition: “What is truth?” “What is reality?” and “What are my duties to my fellow man, to my country and to God?” At the same time, education must reinforce the foundations of identity in such a way as to reinvigorate and strengthen them so that they can withstand the shock of change.

For all these reasons, there is no better investment that individuals, parents and the nation can make than an investment in education of the highest possible quality. Such investments are reflected and endure, in the formation of the kind of social conscience that our world so desperately needs.

At SVPV, we believe in excellence and focus on educators of the highest quality - educators who are creative and committed to their own life-long learning and self-improvement. It also means investments in facilities that provide an enabling environment conducive to the less tangible but equally important elements of an education - self-esteem, leadership, tolerance, ethical judgement and moral reasoning.

Warm regards,
