From the Leader of Learning Wellbeing Year 8

Dear Parents,

In our Wellbeing Lesson on Friday, 23rd April students learnt about the Character Strength of Curiosity. Curiosity is a strong desire to know or learn something; which leads to discovery, happiness and achievement.

St Andrews College encourages all students;

To be curious
To read widely
To listen attentively
To try new tasks
To be persistent

In the Wellbeing Lesson students were taught that true curiosity is not just about asking questions but following a series of actions to find the answers. To be a creative person, students were told to let their curiosity and imagination grow at every opportunity.

According to Henry Ford and I quote;

“ Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty.

Anyone who keeps learning stays young.”

Indeed a curious mind is the secret to a bigger life.

Below are some photos from B11, G11 and F5 taken during the Well Being Lesson for your perusal.

Until next time,

Melissa Blackwell
