Thoughts week beginning 28th September

Hope

What are your hopes for now and for the future?

In assembly we shared the poem 'The Hope-a-potamus'

rhyming story from 'The Book of Hopes' by Greg James

and Chris Smith.

The Hippopotamus in

the story kept going

and never gave up

What obstacles got

in the way for the

Hippopotamus?

How did the

Hippopotamus

keep himself going?

How would you have helped the Hippopotamus to keep going?

When have you needed to keep going and not give up hope?

Share some more of the stories from 'The Book of Hopes'. 

One of my favourites is 'Say Something Nice' on page 36.

I think the last line is clever and funny.

Do you like any of the stories? Tell me about them.
