Health and Wellbeing

Due to the school closure, areas of the Health and Well-being curriculum were unable to be completed last session. For this reason, teachers will be covering certain aspects of the Health and Well-being RSHP (Relationships, Sexual Health, Parenthood) outcomes throughout October.                                                                                  Parental leaflets for each CfE level can be found under Health and Well-being in the information tab in the top menu. These will allow you to be aware of the experiences and outcomes pupils will cover and what they will learn during these lessons appropriate to the age and stage of the pupils.

 

The BIG Anti-Bullying Assembly 2020

Had today been a normal Monday,  Mrs. McKee, Mrs. Lawson and myself would have been taking the P1-3 and P4-7 assemblies and discussing the above subject with the children – Anti Bullying.                 Attached are some resources for parents which could be used to discuss this important matter with your children at home.                                 There is also a document with ideas to support children with worries or anxiety about being back in the school environment.              Mrs. McLaughland

Yoga Pose of the Day

Good morning guys! We’ve made it to Friday on the second last week, can’t believe how quick the weeks have gone in! Today’s is our final yoga pose:

‘Lion Pose’.

Sit with knees apart, tuck your chin in then slowly lift and give me your biggest roar!!! You’ve all been such strong lions during these past weeks of lockdown and it’s been amazing to see all of you trying out the daily yoga poses, some of you haven’t even missed one!

Look forward to doing our yoga sessions together again soon. Have a great weekend everyone!  🦁🌈❤️

PE – Toss and catch practice

  • Hello everyone,

I hope you are all well and staying safe.
Virtual Sports Day Points have been finalised but I won’t be announcing the winning house until I have a highlights package ready, for which I need to liaise with Mrs Griffiths first ( she’s an expert at this stuff). Can I thank you all for your participation and for sending in your scores, videos and pictures – there are some crackers among them!

Did anyone manage to have a fun games night? We have had a few in the Smith household over the lockdown although I think my girls and wife are cheating as I haven’t won a single game yet ☹️. Feel free to send in any photos of your games and sporting activities.
For tomorrow I am posting a couple of throwing and catching activities. These are the Scarf Toss and Catch which is primarily aimed at he lower primary classes to improve hand to eye coordination ; and the Sevens Ball Game for middle and upper school although you should try the activities from either sheet if you are able.
If some of you find these too easy can you adapt them to suit your ability?

 

Have fun and remember to keep doing your workouts and any previous activities you have enjoyed.
Mr Smith
