In the rush of lessons and play, it is important to pause and appreciate the people, opportunities, and small moments that make our school a special place to grow.

Being thankful isn’t just about manners; it’s about a positive mindset. When we notice the good around us, we feel happier and help those around us feel valued too.

]]> Thu, 8 Jan 2026 08:37:12 GMT https://www.wellsprimary.co.uk/news/?pid=9&nid=1&storyid=40 <![CDATA[ Our Value of the Month: Perseverance ]]> https://www.wellsprimary.co.uk/news/?pid=9&nid=1&storyid=39 Perseverance is a vital "Learning Power" in our school community. It means having the "stickability" to keep going, even when a task is difficult, boring, or takes a long time. We encourage our pupils to see challenges not as roadblocks, but as opportunities to grow their brains.

What does Perseverance look like at our school?

  • Trying new things, even if we might fail at first.
  • Using "Yet" language: Instead of saying "I can't do this," we say "I can't do this yet."
  • Learning from mistakes and finding new ways to solve problems.
  • Setting small goals and celebrating every step toward achieving them
