At Bolder Academy, we believe in nurturing not just academic excellence but also strong character values that shape tomorrow's leaders. Our Value Days are the core of this vision, dedicated to kindness, bravery, and strength – essential qualities for navigating life's challenges.
The day was packed with events designed to inspire and equip our students with the tools they need to thrive in the world. Our Year 9s, for example, kicked off their day with an enlightening internet safety workshop, where they learnt crucial skills to navigate the digital landscape safely and responsibly.
Following this, our students were treated to a captivating spoken word workshop that ignited their creativity and encouraged them to express themselves boldly. It was truly heart-warming to see their confidence soar as they shared their thoughts and emotions through the power of poetry.
The highlight of the day was undoubtedly the project management activity led by our partners at Accenture with our Year 8 group. Through interactive sessions, students gained valuable insights into financial education, learning how to manage projects effectively while making informed decisions about their finances. It was a fantastic opportunity for them to develop essential life skills that will serve them well beyond the classroom.
As the day drew to a close, it was evident that our students had gained so much more than just knowledge – they had embraced the values of kindness, bravery, and strength wholeheartedly. We couldn't be prouder of their enthusiasm and engagement throughout the day, and we're excited to see them continue to embody these values in their everyday lives.
The success of our recent Value Day is a testament to the incredible potential of our students, and we look forward to supporting them in the summer term with their work experience activities as they continue to grow and thrive.
