Year 7 Wellbeing Day

On Wednesday March 2nd, all Year 7 students participated in a wellbeing day – It was so wonderful to be able to celebrate wellbeing days again, bring in guest speakers and have fun all together.

 

The day consisted of various workshops – every student went from group to group, so they had the opportunity to participate in everything.

 

Cyber Safety with Legal Aid – 

Legal Aid representative, Bridget, presented a very informative session on cyber safety.  The students were very engaged.

 

Mindfulness with Darryl – 

Darryl, a member of the wellbeing team, took the students through some mindfulness, a way to breath, relax and reboot.

 

Teamwork with Kate – 

Kate, another member of our wellbeing team, took the students through some team building activities – a way to manoeuvre down a plank, using different forms of communication

 

 

 

Yoga with Emerald Pilates –

Di, from Emerald Pilates, took the students through some basic yoga moves, stretching and movement.

 

Fun in EPAC -

We ended the day all together in EPAC  - We had fun playing some interesting Minute to Win It games”  Tea-towel races, balloon popping games, stocking balls on their heads etc
