• KS2 relax with yoga

  Fri 16 Nov 2018
  Children in Years 3, 4, 5 and 6 had a different lesson on the timetable today with a yoga session from Nichola from True Colours Yoga. The children learnt different yoga poses on their own and with a partner. They will be following up the learning with sessions in their classes next week as part of our school-wide Respect week. We hope that the yoga lesson was enjoyable and will give our pupils a way they can help themselves to relax.
