Life Education Trust

Today we were visited by Pip and Harold from Life Education. We looked at feelings and emotions and what we can do when we have negative feelings.



As a special treat, Pip's dog Harper who is recuperating from an operation, came along to meet us.

Thanks to Pip, Harold and Harper for a very interesting day.

Teacher Only Day

On Monday the teachers had a very interesting professional development day on Nature Schools with with Celia Hogan from Christchurch. Many thanks to Jackie Stoff, Lesley Keach, Robyn Lunn and Janis Roulston for joining in our  session and sharing their ideas. Celia's website is well worth a look at www.littlekiwisnatureplay.com

Celia shared a video about the effects of too much screen time on children's brains.    
Please take a look at the following link.  It is a very thought-provoking video.
