This week has been our 'Health focus week' at By Brook Valley! We have enjoyed learning lots of different things in PSHE and celebrating moving our bodies with sports day, colour run and even having a Paralympic athlete join us in school!

PSHE:

In PSHE this week we have been learning about different names for parts of our bodies and what happens to our bodies as we grow older. We had some very mature and sensible conversations in Hawks and asked lots of interesting questions. We also learnt a little about basic First Aid and how to help ourselves and others in situations such as banging our heads, choking, burns and scalds and stings. 

Sports Day: 

Sports Day this year was another great one! We all enjoyed celebrating moving our bodies and supporting each other throughout the day. Well done to each and every Hawk who supported each other with kind words and tried their best in each race and event. 

Colour Run: 

On Friday we loved our annual By Brook Colour Run! We had a wonderful afternoon running around the field and being showered in powder paints! 

Stephanie Millward Visit: 

This week we were lucky enough to have a visit from Paralympic Swimmer, Stephanie Millward! We learnt all about her achievements and setbacks and how she overcame them to achieve her dreams. 

Things to remember: 

• Reading books and reading records in school each and every day. 
• Water bottles in school, along with sun hats. 
• Next week is our whole school Art week when we focus on an art project in class. 

Have a lovely weekend! Miss Reed x
