A New School Year

I hope you are all enjoying your last week of the summer holidays! I'm looking forward to hearing all about what you have been up to.

As we get closer to the start of the new school year, it is time to start thinking about getting ready. You might have already got new school shoes or perhaps a new pencil case, but it's also time to think about what else you can do to be ready.


Have a think about these questions:

What are you looking forward to this year?

Is there anything you are worried about? What could you do to feel less worried?

What do you hope to achieve this year? How will you achieve it?

What might you need to improve on this year? Have you got a target you would like to meet? Perhaps learning all of your times tables, getting full marks in every spelling test, joining a new club or learning to swim a length of the pool?

These are all great things to think about before coming back to school next week. Perhaps you could talk about these questions with an adult or older brother or sister. Could they help you to achieve your goals this year?
