Success for today; prepared for tomorrow. Nothing is beyond our reach.

NED assembly (and yo-yos!)

On Wednesday 20th June we had a visit from Ned and Nate all the way from California.  They came to talk to us about using our growth mindsets.  Ned's name stands for Never give up, Encourage others, Do your best.

The assemblies were really good and the children were spellbound.  The story of NED and his journey was a great way to explore the ideas of using a growth mindset with the children which has built on a lot of the work we have been doing in school.  The use of the yo-yos and some magical illusions were a great way of captivating the 250 children in the hall!  Ask your child about Yet the yeti, Captain Kindness and the brain aliens!

Yo-yos are available in the school office should you wish to purchase them.  There is no obligation to do so and the school receives no money from their sales.
