Our Mission Statement: Woodstock ETNS aspires to excellence in an atmosphere of authenticity, collaboration and respect. Woodstock ETNS is energized by the principle that “educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all” (Aristotle). At Woodstock ETNS we aim to equip each child with an affirming mindset, the confidence and the skills (communication, collaboration, creative & critical thinking) to recognize and reach their unique potential in today’s changing world.

Our vision is to inspire a sense of wonder and willingness to learn that enriches the lives of children, enabling each child to flourish academically, personally, socially and culturally. Each child is encouraged to discover, problem-solve, explore and to share their creativity, talents and collective skills at school and far beyond!

The Woodstock ETNS ethos is dedicated to the Educate Together commitment to providing ‘child centred, democratically run, co-educational, equality-based education for all.’ We are proud to be an inclusive, equality-based National School.
