Our Latest Statement of Belief

5th May 2024
Our ‘Statement of Belief’ is, “I try to keep going when things get tough, and not give up.”
 
Time to talk: Resilience is to refuse to quit, even when things get tough, and giving up is the easiest thing to do.

Showing resilience is about having faith to keep going until the goal is achieved - even if it takes longer or the goal is achieved in different ways. To keep going, and not give, also shows trust in those who support you.

Times of challenge can also be golden moments in your life when you will learn and grow most.

Can you think of a time when you stuck something instead of giving up?

What happened?

Who was there to help you?

How did it feel to keep going and not give up?
