In 2026, Silverfields Primary School steps into a new year with renewed optimism, resilience, and purpose. After navigating seasons of challenge and uncertainty — from infrastructure disruptions to financial pressures and unexpected interruptions — one truth has remained constant: Our school community carries a light that does not easily fade. Be the Light is more than a slogan. It is a call to character. A call to action. A call to hope. It reminds us that even in moments of difficulty, light continues to grow — and very often, it grows through us.
“Light shines brightest where it is needed most.”
For Learners To Be the Light means: * Choosing kindness when others choose conflict * Showing determination when learning feels difficult * Leading by example — not because someone is watching, but because character matters Our learners are encouraged to shine through their choices, behaviour, and effort — in the classroom, on the playground, and beyond the school gates.
What “Be the Light” Means for Our School Community
For Teachers and Staff To Be the Light means: * Guiding, uplifting, and inspiring not only through instruction, but through example * Remaining steady and supportive, even when circumstances are challenging * Shining through professionalism, care, commitment, and consistency
Our staff are the daily light bearers of our school values.
For Parents and Guardians To Be the Light means: * Supporting your child with patience, courage, and encouragement * Partnering actively with the school in your child’s learning journey * Being a steady source of hope in an often uncertain world
Together, we create a strong foundation for our learners to thrive.
The past two years have taught us powerful lessons: * Hardship shapes resilience * Unity reveals strength * Hope is not a luxury — it is a necessity * A community’s light can outshine any obstacle Be the Light acknowledges the reality we have lived through, while boldly declaring the future we choose to build: * A school where every learner feels seen, supported, and inspired * A staff team that stands strong through adversity * A parent community that continues to believe in our mission
Why This Theme Matters Now
Closing Reflection In 2026, Silverfields Primary School will not only teach knowledge — we will inspire character. We will not only overcome challenges — we will illuminate the way for others. We will not only hope — we will Be the Light.
“Do not underestimate the power of your light; one spark can guide many.”
