We all have enjoyed the school Scottish Poetry competition today. There was ten in our class that entered the competition, and it proved to be a very tight competition. We had three finalist perform today, Connor, Kornelia and Zuzanna and they did our class proud. Connor was selected for third place. What an amazing show of perseverance and confidence from all who took part.
As St Valentine’s Day is coming up we had a look at the history of St Valentine’s Day and how we can show love.
This week was Child Mental health week and we have participated in lots of activities connected with this.
The focus this year is growth. We looked at who has helped us to grow and created lovely hot air balloons with the names of the people, at home, at school and in the community that have helped us to grow.
We also looked at all the amazing things we can now do, looking at how as we have grown we have learned new things. We created butterflies to represent out transformations.
On top of this we looked at how to keep our bodies and minds healthy, sharpening our saw! We looked at putting good food, or fuel as we decided to call it, into our bodies will help us to keep growing stronger. How we need to take care of our minds as well and some breathing and coping strategies for when we are feeling anxious, frustrated, angry etc.
We agreed that this can be linked to Habit 7, Sharpen the Saw #Leaderinme
