WOW Check out these amazing students!!!

We know, it has been a while... But don't worry teachers are continuing to acknowledge the students demonstrating our School Values. When a student stands out they are nominated by teachers to be our WOW (WAI of the Week) students.

Only one is selected each week randomly for each year group, but the list is often impressively long!

Our WOW students show:
Resilience - Not giving up when learning gets tough
Personal Best - Striving for their own personal achievement
Respect - Being kind and polite
Culture - Supporting a positive classroom culture
Belonging - Being comfortable to step out of their comfort zones

AND.... Many more beautiful attributes!
