Student Diaries 2021
Each student in the College is provide with a student diary at the start of the school year. This diary has always been seen as a way for students to keep track of their homework and work due for class, as well as a place to write down and track their assessment tasks.
This year, the Middle School Diary has undergone a change with a focus on a “Growth Mindset” forming the basis of the diary. “In a growth mindset, people believe that their most basic abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work”. The diary will act as a starting point as it has a number of strategies to support the girls in working with this mindset.
Throughout pastoral time of a morning and in dedicated pastoral lessons, the staff will refer to this diary and be working with the girls in setting themselves some goals for the year and helping guide them in how they can go about reaching these goals.
Some of the topics covered in the diary include:
Success with Friends and Peers
Learning from Mistakes
Getting things Done
Social Connections
Prioritising and
Goal Setting.
This is a new diary we are working with this year and are happy to receive any feedback.
