We shared this with some of our older children today. Developed by high school students in Santiago it covers all the reasons why kids could not be part of contributing to a school cultures and success and then shares why offering no excuses is their school mantra - to succeed. What a powerful clip.

Secrets of Success

I love this brilliant 3 minute presentation from Richard St John at the TED website. He talks about how he identified the 8 secrets of success which he gleaned from 500 interviews /coffees with successful people over 7 years.
So much these days is said of a person's connection to their environment that they are engaged in. We looked very hard before school started at key elements we had to display as a staff to inspire our children to do their best. I think Richard St John sums it up superbly in his presentation.
The 8 secrets of success are - Passion, Work, Improve, Focus, Push, Serve, Ideas and Persist.
You can view the presentation here. Enjoy!
