All staff are expected to participate in the school&#39;s extracurricular program. Being able to actively support the aims of a Christian school is essential.<br /><br />Endeavour College aims to develop a culture where relationships are valued and members feel connected, safe and respected. This approach fosters an optimal learning environment to fulfill staff and students&#39; God given abilities for life and community. Core to this framework is a focus on Restorative Practice which emphasises working with Endeavour College community members to address behaviour and value relationships. It calls community members to make a personal transformation from a focus on the self towards a focus on others and the common good, and as such it reflects the model of Christ in terms of dealing with others.</p><p><strong>The Endeavour Way is:</strong></p><p><strong>LOVE</strong> - it&#39;s about reflecting the unconditional LOVE of God by showing respect, compassion and kindness in our relationships.</p><p><strong>COURAGE</strong> - it&#39;s about accepting that it takes COURAGE to own our behaviour, take responsibility for our actions and share our experiences with others.</p><p><strong>FORGIVENESS</strong> - it&#39;s about showing FORGIVENESS and acceptance towards ourselves and others with grace.</p><p><strong>HOPE</strong> - it&#39;s about resolving issues in a way which brings HOPE to our relationships and instils faith in our capacity to fulfil our God-given abilities.</p>
