Great Ryrie's primary aim is to maximise children's options, both present and future, in order that they might achieve social flexibility, economic well-being and personal satisfaction. Great Ryrie Primary School wishes to help students develop lively, inquiring minds, a love of learning and a willingness to apply effort to worthwhile tasks.
The school seeks to promote self-responsibility, a sense of worth, emphasis on personal inquiry, encouragement of risk taking, whilst realising the importance of play and the need to provide opportunities for the development of necessary skills for the future.
The school aims to provide children with the security to attempt, and the confidence and support to redress their mistakes. We wish to cultivate healthy attitudes towards others and to learning; to see that school is a worthwhile and enjoyable place to attend, a place where they can succeed, a place where they can care and be cared for.
