This term, our Health and Wellbeing learning will focus on helping children develop positive relationships, understand and manage their emotions, and build confidence through physical activity and play. Through daily wellbeing check-ins, teamwork activities, PE, outdoor learning and explicit teaching of regulation strategies, children will learn to recognise a range of emotions, understand how feelings can affect behaviour and relationships, and identify strategies that help them feel calm, safe and ready to learn.
Our learning is linked to the GMWP framework, SHANARRI wellbeing indicators and the UNCRC, supporting every child to feel safe, included, respected and successful within our school community.
Our RADS will be on a Tuesday afternoon with Fran and our RADS young leaders.
Our P.E slot will be a Thursday afternoon with Mrs Forbes.
