Wellbeing Warriors Update

The Wellbeing Warriors have been working hard to ensure Wellbeing is promoted throughout our school daily. Here is notes of importance and some dates for your diary for this term.

Monday 29th January

We have planned a Wellbeing Day where every class will focus on different activities to relax their minds, move their bodies and make them feel good! Please ensure your child is dressed in comfortable clothing. This can be pjs, loungewear, trackies/joggers etc. NO DRESSES, SKIRTS, DENIUM. Each class has been issued a timetable for the day. A reminder that some activities are outside and so appropriate footwear and jackets must be worn.

 

February

Fruity Fridays will begin from Friday 2nd of February. Before playtime, a tally will be taken for how many pieces of fruit each child has for their snack. At the end of a 4 week block, the class who brought the most fruit will win a prize. This will run monthly.

This months Wellbeing Wednesday will focus on Kindness to coincide with kindness week. It will take place on Wednesday 7th February.

 

March

On Wednesday 6th March, our Wellbeing Wednesday will focus on friendship to coincide with kindness week.

 

Happiness Heroes

A reminder that our Happiness Heroes are in the playground everyday. They can be identified by their badges. If your child is upset, feeling left out or needs someone to talk to, please encourage them to look for a Happiness Heroes 😊

The Wellbeing Warriors are full steam ahead planning our Wellbeing Wednesday afternoons and a Wellbeing Day for January. Our next Wellbeing Wednesday will focus on the importance of sleep and the impact this can have on our physical and mental health.
In December, we will be introducing our Fruity Friday initiative where each class will add up the amount of fruit brought in as snack on a Friday over the course of 4 weeks. The fruitiest class will receive a special reward.
Our Happiness Heroes are also in the process of getting back up and running and we can’t wait to make sure our playground continues to be a happy and inclusive environment.

Soft Starts in Primary 3

Primary 3 are enjoying having a soft start to each day. This allows us to settle into the school day, relax our brains and get ready for learning. These activities change each day and really set us up in the morning to have a great day!

The Wellbeing Warriors have been working hard throughout our school to spread positivity and kindness as always. They have been working in the playground alongside the Happiness Heroes to ensure no one is left out and helping those who are upset or need a bit of cheering up 🙂 
On the 7th of June, we will have our final Wellbeing Wednesday of the school year. This will focus on self-esteem/growth mindset. The children will also work together to create words of affirmation for their class.
Relational Gestures continue to be important work of the Wellbeing Warriors and many children have earned hearts for their class jar – Well done everyone!
As we head towards summer, the Wellbeing Warriors are already looking forward to the next school year to raise more awareness about our physical, emotional and mental wellbeing.
I would like to thank the children of the Wellbeing Warriors for their commitment to their role this year. It has been a privilege to work alongside them to ensure wellbeing is a priority in our school – Mrs Hunter

The Wellbeing Warriors have been working hard as always to continue to promote physical, mental and emotional wellbeing for all. 
We have recently introduced a Relational Gesture Jar ‘Mini Hearts’ where if you are spotted using relational gestures in the playground, you will be given a heart sticker and then can place a mini heart in the jar back in class.  Our Wellbeing team have visited each class to introduce this. At the end of each month, we will collect these in and give a prize to the class with the most hearts.
A reminder that Happiness Heroes are in the playground every play and lunchtime. If you ever find yourself upset or feeling lonely, seek one of them out and they will cheer you and make sure you are included. They are visible by their Happiness Hero badge.
Finally, our next Wellbeing Wednesday will on Wednesday 3rd of May and will be on Moving our Bodies.
