In light of the Olympic Games taking place next year, our school has adopted the Olympic and Paralympic values as part of its ethos. These are the values that athletes follow and they could easily be applied to education.
These Values are:
- respect
- excellence
- friendship
- courage
- determination
- inspiration
- equality.
We are spending time in assemblies and in class thinking about how these values can help to guide is in school.
(I tried hard to find an acronym for the values to make them easier to remember for the children. The best I could come up with is FED RICE.)
