Values are those things that really matter to each of us - the ideas and beliefs we hold as special. The values need to be understood and practised regularly in order to become ‘second nature’ through the way we act and behave at Paparoa Range School.

We believe that the foundations for effective pedagogy are:
- Safe and vibrant classrooms
