Taking notice means being present in the moment; observing what’s beautiful or unusual in the world. It means being aware of our thoughts and feelings. It means savouring the moment.
This week our wellbeing focus is Keep Learning. With this in mind our children will be trying out different activities during the week- both children and teachers will be learning something new. In addition, Year 5 will be enjoying many new learning experiences during their PGL trip. Our Sports captains will be running games on the playground at lunchtime for children to try out and there is a quiz in the library- organised by Mrs Cawthorne - for the children to take part in.
Our wellbeing focus this week is GIVE. Giving to others and co-operating with them can stimulate the reward areas in the brain, creating positive feelings.
Being active is important for both our physical and mental health. Small changes in levels of activity can make a big difference. Just ten minutes of physical activity has been shown to be beneficial for mental wellbeing.
Last week we launched our Health and wellbeing project with the first of the five steps to wellbeing- Be Active
