This year’s Be More Griffen programme was officially launched in Lower School this week. The First Years spent the morning learning about The 4 Rs and The Grow Model and discussed ways in which they could develop skills for learning and remembering in the classroom. They were then joined in the afternoon by the Second Years for a talk and demonstration from Mike Mullen, former BMX halfpipe World Champion. Mike reflected on how much one can learn from failing and set the pupils a task in which they thought about the values demonstrated by their personal role models. Some of the pupils were given the chance to test their balance in a BMX stunt and all were suitably impressed when Mike jumped his BMX over no fewer than four Lower School tutors!
