Unleash Your Inner Trailblazer: The Power of Taking Initiative at Bees & Cubs

Initiative-taking, a valuable skill and attribute, greatly benefits students and staff in a school environment. It empowers students and staff to become proactive, creative problem solvers who are better prepared to excel academically and adapt to the challenges of the modern world.Being an initiative taker fosters independence in students, making them more confident and effective communicators. This, in turn, leads them to be self-reliant and responsible for their actions. Students often emerge as leaders, inspiring others through their actions and willingness to take charge.On a personal level, I was greatly inspired by one of our IB students who conducted her Extended Research on 'Wastage of Paper - Project 2.0.'
