Episode 6

In our last session together, we speak to Holly, Zachary and Oliver. We reflect on the work we have covered in our last session and share our thoughts on completing the Learner to Leader programme. The children share how they have enjoyed learning about leadership and how working with people who they do not usually work with, can be a good thing. We talk about the ‘Pipe Challenge’, how to deal with frustration and explore how working slower, using our skills of patience, can actually speed things up.
