A focus on our Values
Growth
Classes throughout our school are working incredibly hard to unpack our value of Growth and what it means for them. This will continue to be an explicit teaching focus for us during Term 4.
What does Growth look like at Norwood Primary School?
- looking for opportunities to develop a new skill or learning concept
- learning from experiences, mistakes and challenges
- Encouraging all to make positive choices and do their best
- Listening to, accepting and acting on feedback
- Asking questions
- Never giving up.
Living the value of Growth means that we are focused on the process of learning, and we continually look for opportunities to improve. By embedding this value in the culture of our school, we model the behaviours we encourage in our learners.
As part of the celebration of our Values, we will be awarding those students who have consistently displayed and modelled the Growth behaviours of our Expected Student Behaviour. Students who are recognised for displaying Growth, will be presented with a Growth badge, which they can wear every day. These badges will be presented to students in assemblies later this Term. For parents/guardians of these students, please keep an eye out for an invitation to be a part of this assembly to recognise those students who go above and beyond.
