Health

This Term we have enjoyed welcoming Miss Amanda, our school chaplain to share in our lessons.

Miss Amanda is here to talk to us about different feelings and how our actions can affect others.

We have been reading the story, Tom’s New Bike.  The story is about how his friend’s words and actions cause him to feel different emotions.

We have re-created the story using an image board and we have adapted the storyline to be told in a way that would not hurt people’s feelings. We have reflected on how the characters could have acted differently.

We are exploring how our own actions can cause others to feel different emotions and that we can help friends when they are upset, angry or confused.

We are also developing our understanding of how our feelings can have positive or negative effects on our friends.

Our actions can reflect unkindness or kindness towards others.

Health and Wellness Day

Wool Art

Wool art was thoroughly enjoyed by all and caused us to stretch our imagination to create pieces of art work using wool and items from nature. The natural smells and equipment to choose from were very inspiring.

Costumes

We were set a challenge to put on as many dress up clothes as we could to cover our school uniform. We were all invited to take part in a fashion catwalk show once we had created our fashion statements.

Feathers

We had time to reflect and talk to our friends about what makes us happy and we wrote our thoughts down on a feather. We decorated our thoughts and feelings in beautiful colours and designs.

Healthy Eating

During our healthy eating session, we discussed all types of healthy fruit and what vitamins and minerals are used for in our bodies. We explored the importance of eating a colourful diet. We were then able to eat a rainbow serving of different fruits to celebrate being healthy.

Dance

We finished off the morning with Dance. We showed off our best signature moves to the top tunes of today and worked up a hunger for lunch. All the students finished with great smiles and pink cheeks.

Community Song

After lunch we contributed our part into the new School song which was played at the end of the day. Our mindful colouring allowed us a quiet calming tune before heading home.

Congratulations to Bailey for being a winner in the canteen wellness colouring competition. What a yummy prize.
