The value of the month for June is perseverance. At our class assembly we shared our learning about perseverance with the infant classes. We demonstrated how we have shown perseverance both at home and in school and how some famous people have had to show perseverance to reach their dreams and goals. We performed a drama of the story of Mary Jones, the little Welsh girl who learned to read, saved her pocket money for six years and walked for 26 miles to buy her own copy of the bible. We also told the story of the three echidnas who climbed Everest. The audience enjoyed singing “Don’t Give Up” along with Bruno Mars and the Sesame Street characters. We thoroughly enjoyed our final assembly of the session.
