    Shaving Dave: Person-Centred Values in Action!

Class 10.1 recently took on a messy, hilarious, and unforgettable challenge with Mrs Porter to bring Person-Centred Values (PCVs) to life!
Our mission? To give a very special balloon named Dave a shave.
 
Armed with shaving foam and PPE (which quickly became part of the fun!), students had to work through each core Person-Centred Value to ensure Dave received the highest standard of "care." From maintaining his dignity and privacy during the shave, to respecting his choices, and ensuring his safety (one wrong move and POP!), class 10.1 showed incredible focus and empathy.
 
It was crazy, loud, incredibly messy, and filled with laughter—but most importantly, it was a brilliant, hands-on way to understand how we apply PCVs in real-world care settings.
 
Way to go, 10.1! Dave has never looked better.
