Our Term 4 Learning Value

Back to News
24th Feb 2025

Our Term 4 Learning Value is 'self-belief'.


Self-belief is all about:

  • trusting in your own abilities
  • setting yourself challenging goals
  • gaining confidence
  • thinking of yourself positively


If you have self-belief, you realise that:

  • you can reach your potential if you believe in yourself
  • you should set yourself challenging, yet achievable, goals to help stay motivated
  • gaining confidence will give you the strength to carry on (and on) – even when there are challenges


You can show your self-belief by:

  • having a positive and determined mindset
  • being courageous and resilient when facing the challenging, but achievable, goals you set yourself
  • knowing that you will reach your potential and achieve your goals


The following words come to mind when we think of self-belief:

  • courage
  • determination
  • positivity
  • tenacity
  • focus
  • faith
  • confidence
  • assuredness
  • inner strength
  • resilience
