Our Vision:

Together Everyone Achieves More (TEAM Whitehouse)

At Whitehouse, we are all part of and belong to a team. We believe that you can achieve more when you work together. Through teamwork, we learn about communication, compromise and collective effort as well as learning how to appreciate and respect others, take turns and build trusting relationships. Working as a team offers us valuable skills for learning and life beyond school.
