Marvellous Manners at Prep

Manners have been on the menu for the children at Prep this term. Through assemblies and form time, pupils are being encouraged to be little ladies and gentlemen and work on some key social skills to prepare them for the wider world.

Along with holding open doors, listening beautifully in class and always using please and thank you, children are being encouraged to make eye contact when spoken to and to proactively ask questions to each other and to adults, such as, “How are you?”, “How was your weekend?” and “What can I do to help?”.

It has been wonderful to see these efforts being put into practice and we have certainly enjoyed the ensuing responses from their engaged conversations.
