Celebrating Excellence at STC
We hear the word "Excellence" and we strive for this attribute. We hear the word "Excellence" and can think of the top level of NCEA. Mr Stevenson introduced four past pupils with the words of the Greek critic, philosopher, physicist and zoologist - Aristotle and his understanding of the word "Excellence".
"We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then is not an act but a habit."
