Our Mission
At Oscar Peterson Public School we have a dynamic staff who believe that all students can learn when they are given the chance to discover new ideas in a purposeful, dynamic and supportive learning environment. In partnership with the child, their family and school staff, we create a programme that attends to the student’s academic, artistic and athletic abilities. We support our students’ learning and build their self-confidence through literacy-based programming. We value programmes that support athletics and the arts.
