This month (November), the children in Second Class have been looking at the second SHANARRI element, Healthy. Each class looked at different aspects of what it means to be healthy.
The children in Ms. O' Donnell's explored our school healthy eating policy and looked at what healthy meals involve.
Ms. Mannion's class looked at the sensory aspect of being healthy. They examined what being healthy looks like, feels like and sounds like.
Ms. Brazill's class drew what being healthy meant to them and really showed off their artistic ability.
Finally, Ms. Knowles's class coloured beautiful mindful pictures that explored different elements of being healthy, such as getting enough sleep, sharing, breathing, and remaining calm, all of which tie into good mental health.
Well done to the children for engaging so well with this month's theme.
