We will be having a Wellbeing Week next week. The teachers have lots of activities planned. Louisa Mceleney came to the school to train the staff in a wellbeing exercise called Tapping or Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). She will be visiting our school on Feb 1st and 2nd to demonstrate this technique to some of our students. EFT has been shown to lower the cortisol (stress hormone) levels. We are aiming to give our students the resiliency and ability to control their thoughts and emotions by learning this new skill.
We will be focusing on many different aspects of wellbeing including physical exercise, healthy eating, positive affirmations, kindness, resilience and mindfulness. It would be great if everyone focused on healthy snacks, lunches and drinks. We would like to encourage all of our school community to eat as many different colours of healthy food as possible. We are looking forward to a really great week of wellbeing!
