How Good Student is

A Good
Student is Brave

Brave kids are going to be the ones
who take risks and amass experiences. They can use those
experiences powerfully in their learning and growing. They quickly establish
what they love and loathe and then they are more likely to create a life they
love. They are also going to be the students who take learning risks that lead
to lateral, out of the box thinking. The world needs that kind of thinker.

Bravery
is about taking on daunting challenges; feeling the fear and doing it anyway.
Bravery is not the absence of fear. Sometimes when we talk to our kids we say,
“Don’t be afraid” or “Don’t be silly, it’s going to be fine”. This implies that
fear is something to be ashamed of. It isn’t. Fear is human and to be expected,
but it also needs to be overcome. That won’t just happen by magic. It comes
with modelling, teaching and explaining.
