There is a common misconception that 'Going bananas' means were a bit bonkers!!  At Lever House we like to think that being a bit more 'Banana' is a great thing.  Here's why:

Bananas are bright and cheerful...they are even shaped like a smile!  When we smile, not only do we feel happier, but we pass this smile on to those around us.  Smiles are contagious.

Bananas grow in bunches, just like we do at school.  We are all growing, both physically and mentally, alongside each other every day becoming stronger and more confident with the support and encouragement of those around us.

Bananas are literally full of energy.  They are a great source of natural fuel for us and will keep us going through a tough day of learning.

So, when we say we should, 'be more banana', this is what we mean ;)
