P4/3 Day 2 Health Week

Day 2 of Health Week has been just as busy as day 1.

In the morning we had a visit from  Childsmile. It was very interesting and we learned lots about looking after our teeth.  We were very shocked to learn the amount of sugar is some of the drinks we like. We are going to try to make healthy choices about what we eat and drink, especially less sugar for our teeth.

We then had a slot working with Destination Judo. We had to take our shoes off before going onto the mat and we all wore a Judo jacket. We had fun with the warm up, playing games, we also worked with a partner rolling, wheelbarrowing and carrying each other on our backs. We then learned how to do some holds and throws. We all worked really hard.

In the afternoon it was our turn for the silent disco. We all had our own set of headphones and could listen to the same music. Mrs Gaffney was DJ with a mic that we could all hear. We picked our favourite songs and had fun dancing.

Our last activity of the day was the much anticipated football. We loved having a chance to develop our dribbling and shooting skills out on the kick pitch.

P4/3 Day 1 of Health Week

What a great start to our Health Week.  For our first activity this morning we could choose to make either a fruit kebab or a smoothie. The fun part was using the smoothie bike! We chose the fruit we like and added it to the blender. To blend the fruit we had to cycle. They were delicious.

We then had outdoor fun playing at the trim trail and we made s’mores! We got to melt our marshmallows over the fire and put it between chocolate digestives, they were delicious.

We then had time with Showtime Circus! We used lots of fun equipment. We learned how to use hoops, flower sticks, scarves and plates.

To end the day we went on a scavenger hunt at the Community Garden. We found murals, fairy houses and dens. We loved going into the Dark Wood. We then had a play at Ennis Park. What a fantastic day!
