Stay and Learn March 2019

On Thursday 28th March we held a very successful Stay and Learn with a focus of 'Wellbeing'.  Parents joined in with activities in their child's class centred around the five themes of wellbeing:

1. Connect with the people around you. 
2. Keep learning - try something new.
3. Be active
4. Take notice, be curious.
5. Give - do something nice for a friend, or a stranger

It was fantastic that so many of our parents were able to join us.  After the Stay and Learn session parents moved into the hall for a coffee morning which extended the wellbeing principles even further!  Parents brought food to share and it was a wonderful opportunity to get to know someone new.

Here is some feedback from parents following Stay and Learn:

"The learning environment for the kids is so lovely, the delivery is sound, great work by the friendly teachers"  Year 1 parent

"I am now aware of my child's weak areas and try to help him at home"  Reception Class parent

"It's brilliant that kids are exposed to a different way of learning new skills apart from the usual academics.  It is also good to learn relaxation and being active"  Year 3 parent

"I was really impressed by today's lesson because it will help the children grow into reasonable and responsible adults in society who will connect with others"  Year 4 parent

"Really enjoyed stay and learn - it was lovely getting together in the hall to share food and speaking to people we wouldn't normally see"  Year 3 parent
