Monday 15 March 2021 Well-being Day The Barnabus Project formed the basis of our wellbeing day. Mrs Mansell read the story in her assembly and then all the classes did a host of creative activities around the book. Year 6 pupils made Feeling First Aid Kits, which they filled with positive phrases about themselves, a squishy to help remove any frustrations, a character to cuddle and many more elements which encourage them to take care. Year 5 created their own mazes and then supported their blindfolded partners to get out of the maze safely. All the children created some amazing ‘failed pets’ out of clay, which they housed in glass jars, naming them with very unusual and catchy names. The book encouraged us to think about following our dreams and finding where we belonged. A really positive day, full of activities!
