Wellbeing Wednesday - 10th February 2021

9th Feb 2021

It is the middle of the week again and as ever today we celebrate Well-being Wednesday. The theme for this month of February is 'Health snd Fitness' and we continue to focus on good mental and physical health. To assist with this today we have a number of recommendations for you;

  1. The Daily Mile at home - Get out, get fit and get moving with the suggestions on 'The Daily Mile at Home - Week 2' poster.
  2. Relax and be mindful with the 'On and Off' mindfulness video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZP-TMr984s 
  3. Encouage thankfulness with the activities in the 'Gratitude Journals' and add pictures and maybe even a little message.

We are also delighted to be able to announce that the “WRAP” team have secured funding for Wellbeing Packs as part of an ongoing community project, for every pupil in our school. We hope to have these packs ready for distribution when you are next in collecting your next set of class packs for your child on Monday 22nd February. Further details on what each pack contains will be published in the parent newsletter on Sunday 21st February. We would like to thank our many partnering organisations who assisted us in securing items for these packs; our very own Parent’s Support Group, Co. Down Rural Community Network, DAERA, Ards Council, Portaferry and Strangford Trust, Portaferry Flowers in Bloom and Portaferry Community Collective. It is great to see such community spirit in action supporting the children within our locality.
