Good Morning everyone and welcome to a new and exciting week!<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is a busy week as we have nominated Wednesday 17th June to be our first ever…<\/p>\n

‘Welcome Wednesday!’<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

On Wednesday we will launch a new webpage dedicated to the\u00a0 Primary 1 children who will be joining us in August. Normally we would have undertaken a range of activities in school with the children and their parents but this year we have created a series of video messages and powerpoints to welcome our new families. Make sure that you have a look on Wednesday as the current Primary 1 and Primary 6 children have been really very busy!<\/p>\n

Health and Wellbeing<\/strong><\/p>\n

This week is Health and Wellbeing Week <\/strong>and there will be lots of activities for the children to enjoy both indoors and out.<\/p>\n

Normally in June, we celebrate Health Week and we take part in lots of different activities. It is important that we keep our minds focused and positive during these difficult times and two great ways of doing that are by exercising and eating healthily.<\/p>\n

This week I would like you to complete activities from the Keeping Healthy grid at the bottom of this page.\u00a0 On this grid you will find a range of activities for the Shanarri Indicators: Safe, Healthy, Achieving, Nurtured, Active, Respected, Responsible and Included.\u00a0 As well as HWB activities that you will be working on this week, I would like you to complete the RE activities which will be uploaded daily.<\/p>\n

I would also like you to keep a record of the exercise that you complete (exercise logs below).\u00a0 It\u2019s recommended that children between the ages of 5-17 complete at least 60 minutes of exercise per day. There are different ways of exercising. You might go walking, running, play football, dance, play outdoor games or do some yoga. These are just some of the ways in which you can complete your daily exercise and stay active. I am sure you can think of lots more or take some ideas from the Keeping Healthy grid below.<\/p>\n

Another way to help keep us feeling positive is to eat healthily. Why is it important to eat healthily? Imagine your body was a fancy sports car. What kind of petrol would you put in it? Would you give it the best petrol you could buy or whatever you could find? Your body is like a sports car. When you give your body healthy food every day, you have lots of energy. Your body also grows and becomes strong. If you give your body unhealthy food, it won\u2019t work as well.
\nYou might have less energy or get sick more often.<\/p>\n

But how do we know what foods are healthy and what foods are not? Well, a healthy eating guide for the UK was developed. It is called the Eatwell Guide and can be found below. \u00a0You can use this Eatwell Guide when completing healthy tasks from the Keeping Healthy grid below.\u00a0 Please find below other tasks you may need from the grid too.<\/p>\n
