Deputy Head’s Comment

This week we are still looking at the quality of Courage and in particular the courage to try again if we fail.  At the back of one of the classrooms, I was interested to see the stories of some great figures in history who failed many times before they succeeded. Had they not had the courage to keep going our lives would never have known the treasures of an Einstein, a Helen Keller or the Wright Brothers.  The ability to embrace failure and learn from it is a life skill that prepares any person to face whatever challenges may lie before them.
