Find Your Fire

We all need something that inspires us, sparks our curiosity and captures our imagination. Learning should connect with the real world, making children eager to discover new experiences and develop new skills.
At the High Rocks Federation, we champion courage over mere resilience. To us, courage means facing challenges head-on, with positivity and enthusiasm, rather than simply enduring. It’s about meeting the world with a spark, not just surviving it.
Children at our schools are prepared for the challenges of the future with drive, energy and courageousness.
The learning in experiences in our classrooms support this by being linked to the real world, with projects and activities that have genuine outcomes - whether that is writing a recipe so that children can cook something, or learning a piece of music for a performance, or creating art to display in a gallery for parents.
The mind is not a vessel to be filled but a fire to be kindled. - Plutarch
