Launch of this term's value: Aspiration
Mon 30 Jun 2014Our values education project is now in full swing, and involves teaching the children 8 values throughout the year, and having a rewards system to praise those children who adhere to these values. Our new value for this term is ‘Aspiration’.
Definition
- Striving to be the best that you can
- Individual success (academic, social/ behaviour and sports)
- 'Just have a go'
- Being individual; who do you want to be like; what makes a good role model?
- What do you want to achieve in the future?
- What example could you set for younger children/ siblings?
Please could you discuss ‘Aspiration’ with children at home, and explore ways to reinforce it. Each week we will be giving special certificates to those children who demonstrate good values, and these will be displayed in the office reception area. Please feel free to come and look at them!
