Wellbeing

There will always be times where we will  feel the need to switch off, relax or blow off some steam.

Below are some useful links and suggested activities to support the mental and physical health of yourselves and your children at home.

Physical exercise 

Having some form of physical activity is important for so many reasons. PE is a vital part of the national curriculum and we aim to provide two sessions per week in school.

Guided yoga
