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 😃🥰
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! 💪🛞👏
Our crew challenge this week was called “drawing twins”. We had to work in pairs to try and recreate the image on the board. We had to listen very carefully to the instructions but we all had to make sure we was giving very clear and precise instructions.
Today we were scientists in our expeditionary learning and looked at animals and their offspring. We talked about how mammals give birth to live babies and how most reptiles and bird lay eggs. We matched animals and the hound as well as animals which go through a metamorphic changes so they don’t look like their mothers when they are born, such as butterflies and frogs.
Today in Crew we worked in pairs to mirror our partners. We had to pay close attention to all their body movements and some of us found it very tricky!
This morning on Scotties, we’ve been outside working on our team building. We had engineers and medics who had additional responsibilities to ensure the survival of their team. Some great team work from the Crew.
Yesterday morning, we had a crew Challenge where we partnered up. One partner had to give the instructions while the other drew based on the instructions.
When we debriefed, the crew said they found things challenging because of not being able to hear, instructions not being clear or not knowing what they meant. Despite the final images, the crew really enjoyed this activity as you’ll be able to tell from their faces in the pictures.
Today in crew we explored fairnesses. We explored different scenarios and if we felt they were fair or not, we had some great discussions around how fair can look different to people. Being fair doesn’t always mean that everyone gets the same thing or the same amount of something. It means that everyone gets what they need – this sometimes means people get different things.
We concluded that if all people are treated fairly and treat others fairly too, it can help us all to live happy, healthy and safe lives – it can help people to feel good on the inside!
Leo has been working incredibly hard in Crew, his writing has absolutely blown us all away! He had presented his work beautifully ready for our display. We are so proud of you, Leo!
