Fenwick Primary School Health Week
23rd – 27th May 2022

Primary 2/3 had a great start to Health Week today. Pupils started the morning with a mindfulness colouring soft start.

RSHP

The soft start was followed by Primary 2/3 completing a RSHP lesson. They discussed the body parts they can see with their clothes on and then learned the correct vocabulary for the body parts they can not see with their clothes on. In pairs, pupils labelled body diagrams demonstrating what they had learned. They discussed the importance of knowing and understanding the correct names for these body parts and reinforced their learning that these parts are private. Primary 2/3 pupils were also able to identify that each person is unique and that boys and girls have similarities as well as differences.

PAThS
Embarrassed

Today the children learned all about the feeling ’embarrassed’ and how this feels inside and looks outside our bodies. They identified that it could feel really warm and that they might freeze on the spot. They also identified that they might not stop laughing or they might have a red face. They discussed examples of times they felt embarrassed.

PAThS pupil of the day

Today’s PAThS pupil of the day loved receiving compliments from her peers and also complimenting herself.

Massage in Schools

After lunch the class participated in a massage in schools session in the class which helped to calm everybody down after lunch time.

PE – Taekwondo

We ended our day with a taekwondo session delivered by our visitor Gavin Butler from the Fenwick Taekwondo Club The pupils really showed Mr Butler how respectful and responsible they can be by listening carefully to instructions and copying demonstrations which made for a fun filled session had by all.

Important note

Now we are looking forward to another jam packed day tomorrow. We have lots of outdoor sports activities tomorrow so please make sure that pupils have appropriate and comfortable clothing.
