Zest
Zest is … a word for intellectual curiosity, student interest, and enthusiasm. When we’re interested in what we’re learning, we pay closer attention. We think more carefully, make more connections, and dig below the surface. When we’re curious, we are motivated to work harder and longer. Zest isn’t about entertaining. It’s about leveraging the mind’s natural tendency to attend to and expend energy on that which engages and stimulates.
Zest in Year 6 includes enthusiastic participation in all subjects including Science, Readers Cup, Technology and a Skype session with ‘How to Train Your Dragon” author, Cressida Cowell.
