FOCUS OF THE WEEK
Facing Our Fears
Our assembly focus this week has been about looking
for strategies for facing our fears. We read the story
“The hare, the lion, the man and the dog” and gave each
other advice about what to do when we are afraid.
ECIS NOVEMBER CONFERENCE
Ms Lindsay and I attended the ECIS conference in
Madrid. We heard Dr Mel Levine talk about Brain theory
and helping children with specific learning needs. You
can visit his website at

The keynote speaker was Dr Michael Thompson who has
written about the underachievement of boys. His
bestseller “Raising Cain, Protecting the emotional life
of boys” is available from Amazon.

place their hats and gloves in the pockets or sleeves of
their coats.Thank you!
