Week 9 and 10 Character Strength Focus

This week we continue with our focus on Curiosity. 

 

At St. Joseph's School, we can show curiosity by: 

  • Asking questions in order to find out new information.
  • Taking an interest in new things - new topics, new sports, new creative ventures. 
  • Being open to learning new things.
  • Being open to challenging your thinking on a topic. 
  • Seeing learning as something fun. 

By building our character strengths, we can all work together to say:

People have a better day because I am here as part of the school team! 

Each week, we will display our focus for all students to see on our new Living Well, Learning Well display. We look forward to watching our students display curiosity in all they do this week and encourage families to discuss this week's character strength at home.
