Personal, Social and Health Education

Elm Class had a lovely morning yoga session with Clare. They practiced their sun salutations, tree poses and even did some relaxation. We finished with some positive affirmations, I am happy, I am amazing, that we will remind ourselves of throughout the day!

Year 1 enjoyed discussing the concepts of fair and unfair. The class enjoyed participating in a circle time and discussing potentially opposing views with their friends. When asked if it was fair or unfair if “Mummy bought me a new car and the wheels fell off the first time I played with it.” One child responded that they thought it was “unfair because it’s only the first time you have played with it and you want to keep playing with it.” Another child countered this by saying she thought it was, “fair because the Mum didn’t know it was broken when she bought it, it’s not her fault.”

During Mental Heath Awareness Week 2022 we focused on mindful breathing, we learnt how to control our breath and focus on it. By doing this we give ourselves some mindful space and we are learning how stay calm and focused. 

In PSHE this term we have been thinking about emotions, this has included talking about anger and how we react when we are angry, we acted out having a 'strop', screaming and going into a 'huff'
