Our vision

Ark Alexandra is building a flourishing community through Faith, Kindness and Excellence.

The trinity of Faith, Kindness and Excellence form our values. They are underpinned by Agape(love) and overarched by Koinonia(community).

Our vision for Ark Alexandra is to create a truly great school for the young people in Hastings. At Ark Alexandra Academy, we believe that everyone deserves to be accepted, included, and empowered to live a purposeful and fulfilling life. We will ensure, through our learning, that we achieve our fullest potential and live a life filled with belief, integrity and success.

Our values

Our values are Faith, Excellence and Kindness . They are underpinned by Agape (love) and overarched by Koinonia (community).

The foundations of these pillars are:

Faith: For we walk by Faith, not by sight – 2 Corinthians 5:7, I can, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me' Philippians 4:13

Excellence: Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last, but we do it to get a crown that will last forever.1 Corinthians 9 :24-25

Kindness: Ephesians 4:32 “Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.
