On a daily basis, the children try to demonstrate our core values within school. As we aim to practice them so often, they become good habits that we can use not only in school but also at home too.
- Habit 1: Be Proactive (You’re in Charge)
- Habit 2: Begin With the End in Mind (Have a Plan)
- Habit 3: Put First Things First (Work First, Then Play)
- Habit 4: Think Win-Win (Everyone Can Win)
- Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood(Listen Before You Talk)
- Habit 6: Synergise (Together Is Better)
- Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw (Balance Feels Best)
