In order to enhance the learning of our students, we will take purposeful action.  Below are some examples we are considering:

• Highlight the Communication and Personal Awareness Core Competencies 
• Use common language across grades (Kindness Umbrella)
• Survey students to determine where they are in their learning
• Increase use of “I Statements” for student self-assessment
• Provide staff collaboration and discussion time to reflect and make plans
• Implement school wide sharing events and activities 

As we continue to focus on our Social Awareness and Responsibility, we want to observe that students are better able to:

• understand and apply the language of kindness
• understand themselves as people and learners who can take responsibility for their social and physical environments 
• demonstrate a sense of personal empowerment
• share ideas and inspire others by working independently and collaboratively for the benefit of others  
• are aware of the impact of the decisions, actions and footprint  

Our Goals for 2024-2025

• Focus deeper on Kindness to Self, in particular on resiliency, the growth mindset, perseverance and encouraging our students to take risks in their learning journey
• focus deeper on Kindness to place and build capacity in our staff to help our students care for and connect to our local environment
• create class and school-wide opportunities for our students and staff to learn and work together on kindness to self, to others and to place
• continue to connect with our secondary feeder schools and  provide our students with opportunities to work together in making a difference in our community 
• involve our Grade 6 and 7 students in leadership opportunities such as family teams to make our learning about kindness audible and visible throughout the school
