The pupils had to solve a series of problems with just 8 minutes on the clock for each problem. We were incredibly proud of their focus and determination. Lily and Arthur were praised for being first on their table to finish one of the most complex problems!
Everyone worked fantastically well together and made the school proud!
The Pause
At St James, we feel it is important to introduce our pupils to stillness and allow them to discover how to be inwardly free and deeply at ease within themselves. A short period of 5-10 minutes at the beginning and middle of every day is allocated to quietude in which pupils may meditate, contemplate or simply be still – according to their own spiritual inclinations.
