Remote Learning – PSHE

27th January 2021S Robson

We have seen lots of fabulous examples of Health, Wellbeing and Relationships work across school, from our pupils engaged in remote learning and those pupils in school.

Some pupils in KS1 have been practising mindfulness by joining in with online story yoga, and also learning about what makes them special. Others have been learning about money, and having an awareness of saving money for something they need or would like.

In KS2, some classes have been thinking about what makes them happy, and their thoughts on this are all very unique. Researching issues facing cocoa farmers in Ghana and how organisations like Fairtrade are trying to improve working conditions and environment, has produced some interesting debate from some classes. Other pupils have created very informative posters based upon their awareness of basic first aid to do with nose bleeds.

Our Year 6 pupils have been looking at careers and potential jobs for the future, discussing  things that might lead them to choose a certain job or career.

Fantastic!

 

 

 

 

‘Feelgood’ Friday

24th January 2021S Robson

Year 4 have been spreading positivity and good news in their Google Meets on a Friday afternoon.

Friday 15th’s ‘Feelgood Friday’ gave our pupils the opportunity to share wonderful posters they had made on the theme of Good News, Resilience, Feeling Grateful, or something that made them feel happy. This was followed by our weekly Harton postcard awards, recognising pupil’s amazing endeavours and positive attributes.

For Friday 22nd ‘Feelgood Friday’, pupils took part in an online vote to register which activity they would like to participate in during our Google Meet – a little bit of fun to end the week.

For next week’s Meet, maybe our pupils could choose the categories for the vote!

Winter Warmer Festive Fun and Fire Safety

18th December 2020S Robson

Tides of Change visited our school recently and we enjoyed a bit of festive fun and an understanding of how some risk can be incorporated into outdoor play and learning activities.

Pupils toasted marshmallows, used a flint, made S’mores, and learnt about fire safety. In class, pupils made reindeer models from natural resources like twigs.

Everyone was extremely sensible, and followed safety rules to ensure accidents were kept at bay.
