Growth Mind set
We have to work every day to learn new things and keep trying even when it is hard. Being able to say we don't know how to do something, YET, is powerful. We can do it, if we keep trying. Type in this link to watch Giraffes Can't Dance: https://safeYouTube.net/w/ppVM When you have finished, think of one or two things that you can’t do YET and how you will achieve your goal. There is a sheet attached to this pack along with a larger copy of the poster.

Federation Activity
Can you believe that we have all been home schooling for over 14 weeks? What a long time! We are all super proud of the resilience you have shown. Your efforts and hard work that you have all put in are incredible! This has been a crazy time where many of us have felt sad, lonely, worried and fed up! You have all kept going with a smile on your faces. We have seen how you have helped and supported people in our community and looked after each other. Many of you have been in school in Key Worker bubbles so that your grown-ups can help keep us safe. We wish we were able to reward each and every one of you in a Celebration Assembly. We would have every single one of you standing up and achieving every certificate we have from Star of the Week, Resilience and Active Citizen. We hope the certificate below helps you know that we are thinking of you and are so pleased you are part of our Bishopswood Family! From all the staff at Bishopswood Schools, we send you HUGE rounds of applause and hugs.
Have a really wonderful and safe Summer and we will hopefully welcome all of you back in September.
