Welcome to One Starfish. The story starts on a beach where someone is tossing starfish back into the sea to save them from certain death. Another person walks by and says to the saviour, "You'll never save all of those starfish, so why bother?'. The saviour replies, "I saved that one".
And so the story goes with teaching. As teachers, we may not be able to engage every student, we may not be able to flick that switch on for every child, but we'll try our very best to create life-long learners of all the students we come into contact with and hopefully, help them all swim out to sea and follow their dreams
