Beach Mindfulness Excursion!

Many students regularly join me for our Mindfulness Meditation Lunchtime Club on a Wednesday in the hall.  Mindfulness takes training and practice, so to reward the regular attendees,  a small group were selected to attend our Beach Meditation at the front beach (near The Baths) last Wednesday during lunchtime in this glorious autumn sunshine. As well as a Mindfulness Meditation with our barefeet in the sand, we did a 5-4-3-2-1 Grounding Exercise which enhanced our wellbeing and our gratitude for our beautiful surroundings. Thanks to those parents who contacted me after the last newsletter, regarding having your child participate in this fun activity. Thank you to Ebony Hood (LSO) for joining us to ensure we had adequate supervision.  After the activities, the students reported feeling "calmer, relaxed, grateful and happy".  

Lunchtime Meditation and Mindfulness Club continues each Wednesday in our school hall and is open to all students.

Kind Regards,
