Learning Yoga
At assembly last week, Willow Class showed everyone a castle they had made. It was Alexander’s idea to make a castle and the whole class helped him to do this. A few pupils then shared some facts they knew about castles with everybody else so we could understand more about them.
Sam from Holly Class got up and talked to everyone about Davros from Doctor Who. He also talked about the daleks and showed us the book he has been reading about Doctor Who and a machine he had made out of cardboard.
We have also recently started doing yoga at our weekly assemblies to relax before going back to class. Our Principal Jasmine learned some yoga skills at our last Education Network Day and decided to introduce this to our pupils at New Struan. This allows our pupils to engage in a new activity that enhances their learning experience and allows them some quiet time to relax and try new poses as well as focus on their breathing.
Last week’s star awards went to:
Jack for being a successful learner when he had a fantastic first week in his new class
Ben for being an effective contributor as he worked hard to achieve his stars
Kieran for being a responsible citizen when he planted potatoes in our garden
Jenny for being a confident learner when she joined a new class and interacted well with her peers
Well done everyone!
