Emotional resilience

, , , , , , ,

This week in Year 6 Healthy Young Minds delivered a workshop to the class about emotional resilience. They talked about what mental health is and what we can do to look after our wellbeing and what we should do if we have any problems.

They used an idea of a 'calming hand' where the children drew around their hand and wrote on each digit: what they like about themselves; what they are proud of; what they are good at; how they show kindness; and their achievements.

Y6 Star of the week 4-3-22

Well done to our librarians Ava, Matilda, Jessica, Ellie, Matilda and Laura who won the Headteacher's Award today in Y6.

The girls have been so helpful this week organising the whole school competition yesterday for World Book Day. They stood up in assembly to explain what the children had to do, gave up part of their lunch time to run the competition and help younger children take part and helped to choose the winners. I am so impressed with them and appreciate all of their hard work. 

The girls would like to run more regular competitions so watch this space...

World Book Day events 2022

To celebrate World Book Day today our Y6 Librarians hosted a competition during lunchtime where children across the school had to guess the title of a book by looking at a small picture clue from the front cover. The girls were really helpful organising this and gave up their lunch time to work with the children to complete their entries. Well done ladies!

The winners will be announced soon....

KS2 also had the opportunity to take part in a virtual assembly with poet Michael Rosen. Some of our favourite poems were 'Chocolate Cake' and 'Don't breathe'

Matt Goodfellow Visit 2022

, , , , , , ,

We were all certianly inspired by poet Matt this week. He performed his poems so well with humour and spirit and there was lots of laughter in both the KS1 and KS2 assemblies this week. 

All classes had the amazing opportunity to create poems with Matt in their class workshops too. Year 6 really enjoyed this and were keen to share their finished poems with him at the end of the sessions.

I hope those who bought a copy of his book 'Bright Bursts of Colour' have enjoyed reading it.
