One of our school values is
ASPIRE,
which means to work for or work towards something you want; to pursue something you dream about.
We had a visitor today who talked to the children about following their dreams.
Our visitor, John Bougen decided a few years ago he would like to visit every one of the 247 nations and territories of the world.
To date, he has been to 230 of them!
John talked to us today about his travels, and taught us some geography at the same time.
What is your dream?
What will you need to do to achieve it?
Can you name the continents of the world?
Wow that is an impressive amount of travelling! How interesting to hear his stories and find out about the world around us.
