The Mary Bassett Way

The The Mary Bassett Way is the school’s well established ethos to ensure we all behave respectfully and take responsibility for our actions.

We do now have the ‘Mary Bassett Way’ song which helps us to remember some key features of this ethos. The lyrics to the song are below to give you some pointers of how to help reinforce the Mary Bassett Way (and of course take advantage of it at home!)

Verse 1

If you want to follow The Mary Bassett Way,

Have listening ears and think of what you say.

Take time to think of how others feel,

Imagine something helpful, and then make it real!

CHORUS

We follow, we choose to follow!

We try our best in our work and our play,

We choose to follow The Mary Bassett Way!

Verse 2

Enjoy making friendships, be caring and kind.

Think about nice things, don’t store hurt in your mind.

Try your best in all that you do,

Be polite to your grownups and other children too.

Verse 3

Keep everyone safe by having kind hands and feet,

Wear your clothes smart and keep your work neat.

Fix your mistakes and start new every day,

That’s how you follow The Mary Bassett Way.
