We’re very excited to have started our Higher Performance Learning Journey in school. We believe that this will have a very positive impact on all of our children.

Over the first two weeks of this term, we have been learning about how we can work collaboratively with each other and how this skill helps us to work successfully with others. At the end of the two weeks, the teachers chose one child who has demonstrated that they have fully understood what this skill means. So, this time, the award for being collaborative goes to....

Our next value is ‘Enquiring’. High achievement and curiosity are linked and you can develop that curiosity in your child. Ask them questions about anything, such as, 'why do you think that's happened...?' or 'where do you think...?' Questions like these will encourage them to start to independently ask these questions and it's at this point that your job will become trickier, as you will have to answer them!

 

We can’t wait to celebrate our next winners!
