Whakapono ki a koe - Believe in yourself
Our school motto is at the heart of who we are, and what we do at our school.
'Whakapono ki a koe', 'Believe in Yourself',
has come to mean many things for our learners at Roscommon. It means...
* Have respect for yourself and others, as people, as learners.
* If you are faced with challenges, know that you have what it takes to rise to them, and that you will grow in self belief through achievement of your goals.
* You have the power to make choices for your life. Education increases your ability to choose.
* Everything in life is about learning. There are no mistakes, only lessons that you haven't learned yet.
* 'Yourself' includes not only you, but your family, friends and community - your whanau.
* Self belief is a love of all that you are and can be, and loving and caring for others.
