Growth Mindset


We've been looking at the challenges of learning and how important it is to have a growth mindset. Hopefully the parents are starting to hear some of the yellow comments at home.


Dynamic Thinking

We have got a great group of kids taking part in our Dynamic Thinking lessons and it is great to hear some of their enthusiastic comments about it.

We've been looking at what thinking looks like and the children showed me their thinking faces.


Make sure you ask your children about what the spiral symbol means in the bottom left.
