Virtues
The development of a character is a process that requires the efforts of the individual, society and school. At Y Fenni we feel very passionately about taking a holistic approach to education, ensuring that we focus on all aspects of a child’s growth and not only academic ability. Without wellbeing learning is impossible. Therefore, after extensive discussions with pupils and staff we decided on 5 virtues/ values that we feel are essential in developing well rounded children.
The 5 virtues:
- Independence
- Resilience
- Ability to read
- Self - Worth
- Ready to learn, speak Welsh, listen, enjoy and help.
We then agreed on a criteria outlining how we develop these virtues and it was shared with all the school's stakeholders. Each virtue/value has a specific bee with a specific name. (Hari Hunan - Werth, Beti Barod i, Doti Darllen, Alun Annibynnol, Gari Gwytnwch). Each bee also has a story that tells the tale of how they became resilient, confident reader, have self - worth, independence and a readiness to learn.
