As we begin another exciting day at PGL, our Word of the Day is Respect.
During this morning's worship, we reflected on the story of the Good Samaritan and discussed how respect is shown through our words, actions, and the way we treat others.
"Do to others as you would have them do to you." – Luke 6:31
Today, we will be encouraging the children to live out this value in all that they do – by listening carefully, supporting their peers, showing gratitude to staff and instructors, and taking pride in looking after their environment.
Respect helps us to build positive relationships, strengthens our community, and ensures that everyone feels valued, included, and respected.
Following worship, the children enjoyed a hearty breakfast, giving them plenty of energy for the exciting activities ahead.
We are looking forward to another fantastic day filled with fun, friendship, and opportunities to put our value of Respect into action!

Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labour." – Ecclesiastes 4:9
As we reflected on Teamwork, our Word of the Day, we began this morning’s PGL activities with a range of problem-solving challenges, giant swing and climbing activities .
The children have shown fantastic teamwork skills, working together to communicate, encourage one another and overcome challenges as a team. Whether supporting friends through problem-solving tasks or cheering each other on as they tackled the climbing wall , they demonstrated exactly what today’s scripture teaches us – that we achieve more when we work together.
We are incredibly proud of the bravery, determination and resilience the children have shown already today. It has been wonderful to see them stepping outside their comfort zones, supporting one another and celebrating each other’s successes .
We can’t wait to see what the rest of the day has in store for our amazing Year 6 pupils!
