Monday crew- Earth day!

In crew this morning, we celebrate Earth day and found out it’s theme this year is planet vs plastic. We was really excited to find this out as we managed to use our recent expedition knowledge (final product) to support our thinking. We know lots of ways to protect our planet such as, recycling, using less plastic, using bikes, turning off the taps, turning off the lights, planting trees and reduce our waste. We then completed a sorting activity based on what things are good for the planet and what things are bad for the planet. We need to protect our planet everyday, not just on Earth Day as there is no planet B!

Celebrating our HoWLs

Crew Marsh laughed and bounced their way through the inflatable course and slide. We work so hard to ensure our HoWLs are of a high standard and look forward to celebrating our achievements in such a fun way! Crew doesn’t stop when we’re having fun, the children worked together as a team offering praise and encouragement to their peers who found it tricky! Especially Miss Holdsworth, she needed the crew to help her reach the top of the slide and everyone’s resilience paid off! It was such great fun!

Citizenship crew

This week we unpicked what habits we have. We decided whether these were good habits or bad habits and then looked at how we could improve these habits! We have some great habits such as reading to calm down, going swimming each week and listening to music but we definitely need to improve some bad habits like picking our finger nails.

Mindful Monday

In our Crew this morning, we shared our feelings and started to learn about how to keep our minds healthy. We unpicked what the word ‘mental’ means and then discussed ‘mental well-being’. After a crew conversation around what we all enjoy doing, we completed a yoga task to start our day off calmly and positive.

During our debrief, we reflected on what we had learned about why it is important to look after ourselves.

Summer, ‘It is important to keep mentally healthy so that you can be positive.’

Levi, ‘If you have a good mental health you can think better and clearer.’

Lydia, ‘It’s important to look after ourselves to live a happy and healthy life.’

Shelby, ‘The yoga was calming and can help you let out any stresses. You can do this at home too.’

Joshua, ‘I am going to try and make sure I sleep for longer to be healthier.’

What makes us happy? ☺️☀️

In our mindful crew session this week, we looked at how sometimes we can feel lonely. We had a great discussion about what feeling lonely meant and how we can do things which can make us feel less lonely. We then chotted these ideas down on a sheet. It was lovely to see the things that we can do to make us feel happy 😃🥰

Super Scottys

We just love our Wednesday morning Scottys session!! We always work super hard as a team to achieve a common goal. Today, we had to work together to complete the assault course. This included carrying tyres, jumping through tyres and getting from one base to the other. We are definitely getting better at this every time we try! 💪🛞👏
