What a fantastic day we have had in Year 1. We were extremely lucky to have had Zoolab come in today to show us some exciting animals and tell us more about animal groups, linking to our science topic this term - classification. The children not only got to see some animals up close, but were also given the opportunity to hold and touch a giant cockroach aswell as a snake!

Year 1- Children's Mental Health Awareness Week, by Mrs GIlmour

Date: 6th Mar 2025 @ 11:16am

In February it was Children's Mental Health Awareness Week. We had a yoga teacher come and teach us different yoga poses. We learnt about the different emotions from the film Inside Out and created our own emotions characters linked to the colours. We discussed what makes us feel joy, sadness, anxiety, disgust and anger and how it is okay to feel these emotions and what we can do when we need to regulate back into the green zone.

We also dressed up in clothes of what we would like to be when we grow up to raise money for the school peace garden. We wrote down some ideas of what we need to do to achieve our dreams and goals too.
