The ten learning skills
Since the beginning of this school year, the whole school has been studying the ten learning skills, discovering how these skills can affect all their learning and being encouraged to develop and apply them at appropriate times. You may have attended one of the class assemblies this year, in which the children have shared what they have learned about one of these skills.
The skills are listed briefly here but please select the link at the bottom of the page and click through a powerpoint presentation of additional information.
* Curiosity
* Resilience
* Awareness
* Creativity
* Communication
* Inter-dependence
* Reflection
* Resourcefulness
* Fitness to learn
* Making connections
Understanding and application of these skills will enable the children to become independent and effective learners. Take a moment to consider how you use them in your own learning and you will realise how valuable they will be for the children.
