Bacon's Lion

The Bacon’s Lion is the symbol of courage and strength.

A Bacon’s student has the courage to follow their convictions, to challenge injustice, to persevere in order to succeed and to remain steadfast in the face of adversity.

“Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go”
Joshua 1:9 (NIV).

Compassion

Bacon’s students follow Christ’s example by giving generously to those in need, placing others before themselves, supporting each other and loving their neighbours.

“Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.”

John 13:34-35 New International Version (NIV) 

Respect

Bacon’s students believe that everyone - regardless of race, faith, gender, sexuality or social status - is unique, special and loved by God. We respect all people as equals and without prejudice.

“Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers and sisters dwell in unity”
Psalm 133:1

Faith

A Bacon’s student draws strength and endurance from faith in family, staff and friends as well as from their own abilities and beliefs. We are a loyal school community.

“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.”
2 Timothy 4:7

Integrity

A Bacon’s student acts with integrity in deeds and words. We are honest and admit to our mistakes. We achieve wholeness (integer) by being truthful and of good character.

“May integrity and honesty protect me, for I put my hope in you.”
Psalm 25:21. New International Version (NIV)
