Well done - we have made it through our first full week of school.  Many of us are feeling a bit tired and ready for a good rest and recharge.  Taking some time out for rest, engaging in positive activities and simply just being together is important not only for adults but also children.  This website (link) has some great tips on supporting children to recharge and rest, ready for the new week ahead.

It has been wonderful to have the opportunity to visit many of our classrooms and discuss our St Benedict’s Way of PEACE and the efforts the students are making.
Persistence has been a key feature as the students take some time to settle into their classrooms and routines.  I look forward to more wonderful visits this term.

Alongside our St Benedict’s Way of PEACE, students have been engaging in our lessons for Zones of Regulation.  By learning about the 4 zones - Green, Blue, Yellow and Red along with the emotions and behaviours that can fit the zones, students develop a common language to express how they are feeling emotionally and mentally, as well as the physical and behavioural strategies they can use to manage these emotions.  By expressing their feelings, students are able to develop self-regulation skills and build their emotional intelligence.

Yours in Support
