Yoga fun
Georgie who has been coming in to school and sharing her Yoga techniques with us has now provided links to some short videos. These cover a range of different areas and can be undertaken alone or as a family.
Please try some.

"I CAN SEE SCRIPTS"
We have introduced a script that all staff will use when inappropriate behaviour is noticed. The children know the script and are even letting us know what comes next! Please ask your class teacher if you would like further information.
YOGA
In the Spring and Summer terms this year (2019) we have been lucky to have Georgie the yoga teacher in to school funded jointly with Trefonnen School, she has carried out yoga sessions with all children from Year 2-6. The children have enjoyed it so much that all our staff will be having training for 5min yoga for children in the Autumn term, so that they can carry on these invaluable sessions.
YSTAFELL OERI
Opening a classroom at lunchtimes for children to visit to sort out issues, calm down or just chill has had a significant effect on making our playtimes positive

Kidscape Sessions – evaluation by Year 6 pupils
We enjoyed the Kidscape session with Carole and learnt a lot from it. We enjoyed taking part in role play activities and particularly enjoyed the ‘Broken Record’ which was when you continued to say the same thing over and over again to someone who was being unkind to you so that they got fed up and stopped bothering. Another good idea was ‘Fogging’ – this was when you pretend that you are in your own cloud and this calms you down and builds your confidence. Overall, we enjoyed this session and feel it was beneficial.
