Physical Education:
Quality physical activity not only improves your physical well being but can help with your mental and emotional well being as well.
I have compiled a grid of PE choices for you to select from. Please ensure you are completing at least 30 minutes of quality physical exercise each day.
Mental, Emotional and Social Wellbeing:
Ensure you wake up at your usual time, and get dressed for the day. Don’t spend all day in your PJs!

Limit your time on screen devices throughout the day.Learn a new skill such as drawing, sewing or cooking instead.
Schedule time to talk to friends and family.
Help out with chores around the house. Can you keep your bedroom tidy and make your bed? Can you separate your washing?
