Year 5 Weekly Newsletter
Week 3, Term 3
Dear Parents, Caregivers and Whanau,
This week we had the privilege of having the fantastic NED at school. He overcame obstacles, took on challenges and found solutions to problems. The learners were encouraged to Never give up, Encourage others, and to Do your best! We learnt that our brains run on learning and the importance of changing our mindset from, "blue brain - freeze" to, "go brain - grow!"
We hope that our learners will remember and practise what they have learnt from NED over the coming months as they develop a growth mindset.
