What a school! 🌟

Today my little Jamesy had his recognition ceremony at school, and I was reminded just how powerful seeing a child truly is, and how blessed we are to be at a school that understands this.

Recognition isn’t just about awards or certificates; it’s about noticing the quiet courage, the small steps, the unique way each child shines. ✨

Seeing the look on each child’s face, as their teacher so carefully, accurately and thoroughly described them and their strengths, was beautiful.

When children feel seen and valued for who they are, not just what they achieve, their confidence blossoms.

Every child deserves that. 💛
