On Thursday 29th February, we welcomed the Happy Puzzle Company into School, for all our pupils in Years 3 to 8. The children encountered a variety of puzzles, most of which could be solved within a few minutes, but required collaborative learning skills with careful strategic planning, in order to find a solution.
If the temptation to give up started to appear, the programme taught pupils how to persevere, put their own skills to better use as part of a team and overcome difficulties by approaching problems from a different perspective.
