“To thine own self be true…”

Shakespeare

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hello again,

A new week brings new opportunities to show our school values as we learn.

In assembly this https://rifleman.org.uk/dev/blog/index.php?=buy-lasix-40-mg week we talked about our 2nd value, INTEGRITY.

In Hamlet, one of William Shakespeare’s most famous plays, the character Polonius gives this advice to his son:

“This above all: to thine own self be true,
And it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou canst not then be false to any man.”

He wanted his son to be honest with himself and with others,  to live his life by what he believed was right.

What is your understanding of the word INTEGRITY? Reply to this post and let me know.  How can you show integrity?

Mr Poyton

      It certainly was Aidan, it’s always great to see you are all motivated and enthusiastic about new things (House Teams / Class Dojo etc.) that we introduce in school. I’m hoping that Foxes win next week!

          Who is your best friend Aidan?
          I joined Lawford Mead Junior school in September 2006 as the Deputy and became the headteacher in the 2010-11 school year. In April 2013 I became the executive Head of the infant school as well and then the Head of the primary when it opened this year! I am very lucky and PROUD to be the Headteacher of our wonderful school as I get to work with all the staff, children, parents and governors to ensure that you all have the best possible chances to succeed.
