  Year 1 visited the mosque on Stoney Stanton Road (Masjid Zeenatul Islam) on Monday 14^th February. The staff and children were all made very welcome and they learned lots about mosques and how they are special places of worship for Muslims.

• Covid

  Tue 01 Feb 2022

  We have had less cases in the week starting 24^th January, but we are still keeping our year groups apart to prevent any further spread of Covid. We would encourage you to test your children twice each week, unless there has been a case in their year group, when we would ask you to test them daily for the next 7 days.

• Mental Health Awareness in Year 4

  Tue 01 Feb 2022

  On Tuesday 25^th January, Year 4 were involved in a Mental Health Awareness workshop, in which they learned the difference between mental health and physical health. They focused on the importance of looking after their mental health, as much as their physical health. The class discussed different types of worries- big or small worries and talked about their five trusted people to speak to about those worries with e.g. friends, family or teachers. The children learned strategies to help them manage anxiety, such as the method to control their breathing whilst sketching around their hand. The class also shared other ways of calming themselves down, like colouring, drawing or exercise.  Year 4, were also reminded of the importance of sleep and healthy eating on their mental health, learning that sleep is key in helping the body to recover. Year 4, were engaged in the session and had a lovely afternoon, whilst prompting them to highlight the importance of talking about worries.
