And Relaaaax

This half term, we are very lucky to have Sian delivering Relax Kids during our PE afternoons. The main aim of these sessions is to help children manage their emotions and help develop their understanding of how to be both mentally and physically healthy.

Today, we began with a number of games to get the children moving, alert and alive. The children then used a wide range of breathing techniques and ways to lower their heart rates in order to go from feeling energetic and lively to relaxed.

The session ended with the children lying on the floor in order to escape the struggles, strains, hustle and bustle that life can sometimes throw at us. Some children even fell asleep (which is good preparation for our ‘Sleepover at Southill’ on Friday).

Well done, Year 4. Sian was very impressed and so was I.
