Introducing Timaru Christian School

Timaru Christian School is a non-denominational Christian state-integrated school. This year it is celebrating 20

years since it first began as a private school.

Up until the end of 2015, the school has been a Year 0-8 school. At the end of 2015 we were granted a Change

of Class so we can teach up to Year 9 in 2016 and Year 10 from 2017 onwards. This was in response to our school

community’s desire to have access to Christian Education to a higher level.

Students come from a variety of churches from more traditional to pentecostal congregations.

Timaru Christian School’s Vision and Values

At TCS we want our community to be

Christ-centred learners with servant hearts

This will be modelled by Board Members, Staff, and Students.

It will be achieved through our strategic aims:

1. Biblically-embedded curriculum

2. Strong community partnerships

3. Motivated, enthusiastic learning and

discipleship

As we do this, we will demonstrate our values:

Love and Grace through Servanthood, Truth and

Perseverance.

Each of our values encompass a wide range of Christian values and

virtues, as well as the values and vision of the New Zealand Curriculum.

This diagram illustrates all of the above, with the vision of the school

surrounding our strategic aims which are taught through our motto and

values.

A further description of each of the values is listed below.

Cultural Diversity at TCS

We value the many different cultures represented at our

school, with families from over 16 different countries.

As we teach our students about the diversity of God’s

creation, we encourage students to value their own and

others’ cultures. We do this in a variety of ways:

Our school song has a chorus which celebrates the

many languages in our school community.

Whakatauki are displayed in the hallways and

related to Scriptures that are relevant.

Teachers incorporate basic Te Reo commands into

the classroom programme. If parents wish for their child’s understanding of Te Reo to be extended, we will

make every effort to do so.

Students in Year 5/6 attend a Marae experience every second year.

Parents are encouraged to speak to their children in their native language at home to ensure they maintain

a strong sense of their family’s culture.

Students from Year 7 onwards are taught a second language on a weekly basis. In the past the languages

taught have included Te Reo, NZ Sign Language, and Spanish. We have also offered Mandarin at

lunchtimes for students of any level, in partnership with a local high school.

In 2016, Year 9 students will be learning Mandarin through Te Kura – Correspondence School.

We hold a Multi-cultural day every two years to promote an understanding of different cultures at our

school.

Statement of Faith including Cornerstone approach

The ‘Special Character’ of Timaru Christian School sets it apart from other schools, having begun its life as an independent school in

1996. In 1998 the proprietor of the school (North Haven Ltd) entered into a partnership with the Crown enabling it to teach the New

Zealand Curriculum from a Biblical worldview. The proprietor delegates all proprietor responsibilities to the Timaru Christian School

Trust which was originally formed to establish the school.

Statement of Faith – what we believe

1. I believe in the one true and living God, eternal in three persons, Father, Son and Holy

Spirit, the Creator of heaven and earth.

2. I believe that the Holy Scriptures are the only inspired and infallible written revelation of

God to man and the supreme authority in all matters of life and faith.

3. I believe that man was created in the image and likeness of God, to have dominion

over the earth and to do all things to the glory of God.

4. I believe that all have sinned, falling short of the glory of God, and come under His righteous judgement.

5. I believe in Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of the Father, conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin, crucified, died and

was buried. On the third day He was raised from the dead. He ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of God the

Father and will personally return in glory to judge the living and the dead.

6. I believe by God’s grace, through the work of the Holy Spirit, we are saved if we turn from our sin and believe in Jesus Christ as

our Lord and Saviour.

7. I believe in the bodily resurrection of all mankind to the eternal blessedness of the saved and everlasting punishment of the

lost.

8. I believe in the on-going work of the Holy Spirit to equip, inspire, empower and encourage God’s people to witness and work

in faith.

9. I believe in one holy universal church, of which Christ is Head. He draws together the Body of believers by His Spirit and Word,

through faith and unity of purpose to further the Kingdom of God.

10. I believe in God-centred education providing the foundation of all learning, teaching the Lordship of Christ in our world.

11. I believe that God has given parents the responsibility to train their children according to His Word, and therefore

acknowledge that the school is an extension of the home.

At Timaru Christian School we practise six aspects which contribute Christian Education. These include scripture

memorisation, devotions, Bible study, chapel, Christian Service and integrated Christian concepts.

Devotions: Each class begins the day with devotions. This may be based around a world-event or country, a bible

passage or a theme which is relevant or topical for that class.

Bible Study: Each week the teacher will spend two sessions focusing on extending student knowledge about the

Scripture focus for that week. The Scripture programme is a 4-year school-wide cycle which covers a wide range

of Biblical stories and principles from both the Old and New Testaments.

Integrated Christian Concepts: Aside from the 'deliberate' Christian teaching timetabled each week all units of

work have a Christian component and promote critical Christian thinking.

Weekly Chapel: Every Monday morning the school has a Chapel service. This is an opportunity for us to worship

and celebrate together. As a part of the service we have a teacher or local preacher speak about the Scripture

passage or memory verse for that week.

Scripture Memorisation: Every week, as a part of their homework, our students memorise a passage of scripture

which is directly related to the Scripture programme.

Christian Service: Service to others is a very important aspect to being a Christian and so each class completes

community service acts each year. Service will be a strong focus of the Year 9-10 programme as we integrate it

strongly throughout the programme.

At Timaru Christian School we have developed the

Cornerstone Approach to our teaching and learning

programmes. It ensures that everything is based on a Christian

Worldview.

All topic units have four key elements: Vocabulary, Special

Character/Tikanga, Inquiry, Presentation. We believe that by

covering each of these aspects, we are developing skills and

understanding in our students which are important to our

school community.

Planning and Assessment documents all incorporate the

Cornerstone Approach to ensure we are consistent across all

levels.

and implement it in

order to achieve

our strategic aims

which are related

to that vision.

Incorporate new school

vision and values into all

documentation and

practices, school

workbooks, policies etc

As policies and procedures are updated, consider

how our vision and values are shown in them and

ensure consistency.

Redesign planning and reporting sheets in line with

new vision and values.

We have an increasing number of

Pasifika students enrolling at TCS and

we want to be able to understand

their needs and develop strong

partnerships with them and parents

from other cultures to ensure a strong

focus on student learning. The

publications available from ERO and

the Ministry provide guidance and

indicators which we can use to

measure our effectiveness. We, as a

staff, also need a greater awareness

of different cultural practices to meet

the diverse needs and expectations

of members of our school

community.

Use Ka Hikitia and

other Ministry and

ERO publications to

assist with developing

partnerships with our

diverse parent

community

Teacher Retreat – focus on

understanding Maori culture more and

how to incorporate it into Christian

Education. Visit Chapman College in

Rotorua. Visit Living Maori Village.

Develop self-review tools using Ka Hikitia,

Tataiako, School Evaluation Indicators

and ERO’s Six Dimensions of a Successful

School.

Develop an action plan for improvement

based on the self-review.

Implement the action plan and review.

Our achievement data at the end of

2015 showed that half of the students

who had been at school for 40 weeks

were achieving below the national

standard in Reading. Some of these

students were clearly not ready for

formal schooling yet and we hope

that as they mature they will develop

their reading skills more quickly but we

need to put in processes to speed up

that process.

NS Target: By the end of

2016 all Year 2 students

will achieve at the

national standard in

Reading. (After 80 weeks)

Running Records will be taken at the

start of the year and at the end of

every month to track progress.

Parents will be shown some ways

they can promote reading for their

children at home.

Daily buddy reading programme

put into place for extra reading

mileage.

Focus on fluent identification of sight

Our achievement data at the end of

Pasifika students were not achieving at

their expected level. This will be partly

due to their ESOL backgrounds for

some students. We need to assist them

with grammar, sentence structure,

and spelling (surface features) so they

can express themselves clearly.

NS Target: By the end of

2016 all Pasifika students

will achieve at the

national standard in

Writing.

Students will be encouraged to

write everyday in class.

Teacher aide assistance provided to

develop understanding of surface

Our achievement data at the end of

Year 7 students were not achieving at

their expected level in Maths. For

some of them motivation is a factor,

for others it is their own self-confidence

in Maths, for others it is due to their

understanding of the English

language. We need to ensure they

achieve success next year.

NS Target: By the end of

2016 all Year 8 students

will achieve at the

national standard in

Maths.

All Year 8 students will be assessed

at the start of the year to determine

their ‘hotspots’ – things they need to

focus on in their learning.

The Maths interchange programme

will continue.

Parents will be given additional

ideas for how they can help at

home.

A range of learning experiences will

be used to teach new concepts

including outside of the classroom,

based on real-life problem-solving

etc so their interest is increased.
