From the Grimes Dyke Primary School
s Dyke encourages Everyone has the confidence to aim high, enjoy life, and succeed without boundaries. We gave this a lot of thought, and after talking to several of our stakeholders, we decided on the words. When they consider what they will do with their future lives and education, we want our children to have ambition and strive to be the best they can be. We are aware that everyone learns best when they are enjoying what they are doing, and we want our children to enjoy learning and achieve academic achievement. Naturally, regardless of their abilities or disabilities, gender, colour, or religious views, we want all of our children to achieve the best that they possibly can. We want kids to feel empowered and capable of doing everything they set their minds to.
