What an amazing day we are having in school today! Ex-Olympian Swimmer Chris Cook has been working with all of our children to inspire them to do great things. Our day started with Chris speaking with all of our children . He spoke about his life so far   -the successes and the obstacles he had to overcome on the way. He showed us footage of when he won a gold medal at the Commonwealth Games in 2006. Chris then worked with every class asking each child (and adult) to think about whether they are in their comfort zone, stretch zone or panic zone. He encouraged children to move out of their comfort zones and not to worry when they are in their panic zone. This won't last for ever and we need to learn from our experiences. A huge thank you Chris for spending the day with us.
