Today in Barn Owls, we voted for our School Council, Sports Council and Class Gardener Representatives. Different individuals wrote their own speeches, discussed their campaign and then created posters which they placed around the school environment. Each candidate presently their speeches eloquently, audience members listened actively and then an anonymous vote, using our school ballot box, took place. The class' choice will be announced later this week - watch this space!

Mindfulness Club

In Mindfulness Club this week we practised the skill of mindful eating. We made sure we had no distractions, we looked and smelt what we were eating before taking a small bite and tasting the food. Sometimes we eat without thinking but by slowing down and taking notice of what we are eating we can really taste and enjoy our meals.

The children worked in teams to generate a list of class rules. We shared these rules and discussed which we felt were most important for our class and our learning. Each new line started with 'I will...' Once everyone was happy with the list we signed it to show that we agree and will do our best to follow the class rules.
