This week I led an assembly with the theme of perseverance.  It made me think about how we all need to persevere with things and how it makes us feel when we achieve something that has been a challenge.

Many of the characteristics of effective learning reflect this.  This week I have been very proud of the way the children keep on trying, even when something is difficult or when a challenge arises.  They are becoming more able to plan ideas and adapt these when needed.

Building a tall tower that won’t fall over.  It took many attempts but the boys showed great determination and achieved their goal.

The girls here all had different objectives but they persevered even when their buildings fell down.  They looked at each other for ideas and supported each other to keep on trying.

Well done Nursery 🙂
