Welcome back team – it has been great to kick start Spring Term Two thinking
all about the ‘Five Ways to Wellbeing.’ These are five proven concepts and strategies to help improve our
wellbeing, both physically and mentally. The five ways to wellbeing are: Connect, Take Notice, Keep Learning,
Give and Be Active. This week we started our week with an active and fun assembly, talking about how we can
‘move our mood!’ Please continue to talk to your children about our learning themes at home.

I started the week talking all about ‘Empathy’ and how important a skill /
value this is. The children showed great understanding and we also linked it to Safer Internet Day which we
celebrated on Tuesday. All classes got involved and we explored many areas of internet use, including AI and
how we can use this responsibly. Our visitor PC Elliott led an assembly for Key Stage Two and talked all about
safety on devices and what to do if we are worried or unsure. It was a really informative and fun day – thank
you to Mrs Hamilton for organising.
