At Waterside, we use our school values to promote positive attitudes to learning and developing a growth mindset for all. These reflect the skills and attitudes needed to promote responsibility for learning and future success. The children will be able to explain about the need to be respectful, resilient, confident, kind, inclusive and aspirational and how these help them as life-long learners.

They will;
- Have developed a strong sense of identity within the school and belonging to the community
- Have the confidence and skills to make decisions
- Have aspirations to achieve with a growth mind set
- Have the skills to self-evaluate, make connections and become lifelong learners
- Be able to keep themselves safe
- Be able to transfer to secondary school as an independent learner
- Continue to contribute to the wider society and be a responsible citizen who is tolerant and respectful of others’ values and beliefs
Our aim is for the children to leave us with a sense of belonging to a tightly knit community. They have the confidence, aspirations, understand their choices in life and the difference they can make as a global citizen.

Today we ticked off one of our citizenship activities by taking part in team building activities. We had to travel from one end of the hall to the other using the mats. We had to help each other pass the mats to make sure nobody touched the floor.
