🎉 What a truly inspirational afternoon at our school today! 🎉
We were honoured to welcome the incredible Nigel Vardy — better known as Mr Frostbite — to support the first topic of our Resilience Reaps Reward programme: Heroes.
Nigel’s story is nothing short of heroic. After facing unimaginable adversity on the slopes of Mount McKinley and suffering severe frostbite, he turned his experience into a powerful message about resilience, courage and the strength of the human spirit. (mrfrostbite.com)
Throughout his presentation, Nigel reminded us that heroes aren’t just those in capes — they are people who face challenges head-on, choose hope over despair and keep moving forward. He encouraged our pupils to believe in themselves, embrace the bumps in their journey and understand that resilience means getting back up, even when the path ahead seems frozen.
We were so proud to see our children engage — asking thoughtful questions, listening intently and showing how enthusiastic they are about this new programme. Today was more than a talk; it was a moment of connection, inspiration and planting seeds for the rest of our year.
A huge thank-you to Nigel for sharing his story with us and for helping our children understand that heroes come in many forms — sometimes it’s the quiet, persistent self who doesn’t give up.
Here’s to a year of growth, resilience and reward! 💪✨
