Wellbeing Wednesday was lots of fun!

Reception spent time with their year 6 buddies.  Their buddies taught them how to use the track.

We read 'The Friendship Bench' and then made a 'Friendship Stop' for a class.  We talked about looking after our friends.
We also talked about who helps us at home and school and made a 'helping hand.'
Finally, we read 'Stompysaurus' and talked about the feeling of 'anger' and what we can do when we feel like that.

In Year 2 the children made 'quiet critters' to help them take notice. 

They also made worry monsters to help them connect when they have a worry.

In Year 3 they spent time in our forest school area!

Year 5 focused on respect and being creative!

We focus on the 5 ways to wellbeing

Below is a link to a new Government website Every Mind Matters.  There are resources and advice for parents and carers in relation to children mental health needs and support.
