Anderson's Creek promotes school-wide values of Respect, Optimism, Responsibility and Honesty. Each class spends time at the beginning of the year developing behaviour guidelines and expectations. These are displayed so they can be referred to throughout the year. Children are also involved in setting personal learning goals which are revisited regularly. Circle time is about creating a safe learning environment, promoting well-being, emotional and social intelligence, and emotional literacy. It is one aspect of the whole school approach to enhancing self esteem, encouraging self awareness, empathy and the development of communication and social skills.
