About Us
Our Mission and Values
Our Mission
Creamhill School foster purposeful inquiry-based and social-emotional learning for children in nursery through primary 7 (seven) in a joyful, connected community. We empower all students as curious, confident, and resilient leaders, thinkers, and creators.
We Believe
Childhood is a crucial period of complex, joyful learning filled with discovery and wonder.
Our focus on nursery through primary 7 (seven) enables us to prioritize and celebrate this time in our students’ lives, when the learning curve is at its steepest, building a strong foundation for success in secondary school and beyond.
​
Children thrive in a supportive, academically rigorous learning environment that encourages intellectual risk-taking.
Our child-centered focus, differentiated instruction, and unique academic program – combining inquiry-based and social-emotional learning – provide our students with a wide range of challenges, opportunities, enrichment, and support, fostering in them a lifelong love of learning, self-advocacy, and perseverance.
​
Everyone benefits from and contributes to a diverse, caring community.
Rooted in our origins of Christianity as a cooperative, our distinctly collaborative community serves as an essential framework for learning and well-being. Our families, faculty, and staff work in partnership on behalf of every child every day, and we share a collective sense of commitment, respect, and appreciation toward one another.
​
We all make a difference.
We believe each of us can act with integrity, generosity, and consideration for others. From the youngest to the oldest, we instill in all our children a sense of responsibility to their classmates, school, and local and global communities. We take pride in the many ways our children dedicate themselves as engaged, responsible citizens.

Our Curricular Model
Finding solutions to complex problems requires curiosity, empathy, and ingenuity. At Creamhill Schools, inquiry-based learning engages our students in discovery, exploration, and guided practice, developing strong core academic skills, conceptual understanding, and critical thinking. Social-emotional learning develops our pupils’ emotional intelligence, cultural responsiveness, health and wellness, and resilience. Together, these complementary components of our curriculum promote intellectual flexibility, perspective-taking, interdisciplinary and interpersonal connection, collaboration, and innovation.
Our Commitment to Belonging
At Creamhill Schools, we believe that diversity, equity, and inclusion are central to educational excellence and essential to our mission. We recognize that all students, families, faculty, and staff members bring unique experiences, backgrounds, identities, and perspectives that enrich our community when recognized and celebrated as part of our program. We intentionally cultivate a culture of belonging, pride, and respect for every member of our community while building the skills necessary for understanding and connection.
