‘Good Shepherd Lutheran School welcomes with ‘open hearts’ all students to provide a quality education for ‘inquiring minds’ in a value enriched environment which is informed by God’s Word, the Bible’.

Strategic Vision

Our strategic vision is to be:

• ‘An engaging learning community where partnerships are fostered and relationships flourish.’
• ‘Engaging’: engagement is meaningful, immersed in, there is ownership and active involvement.
• Learning Community’: we are all a part of the learning community; we consider how we learn best. We focus on living and learning as a community.
• Relationships Flourish’: Flourishing relationships are a distinct strength of GSLS. Relationship is core to who we are.
