Cloud watching is an excellent way to observe nature, relieve stress, and free your imagination! It can be fun and relaxing to recognise shapes in the sky like animals, people, and objects. Baxter and the pack often watch clouds go by during our school walkies, if you'd like to #WalkwithBaxter let us know link in bio

This #WellbeingWednesday as it's #StressAwarenessMonth2023 we are providing #StressTipsFromSeren to help pupils manage challenges that can face them.
Studies show that naming your emotions immediately releases their grip over you and reduces physiological distress. Emotional labelling provides emotional clarity, giving you a deeper understanding of what happened, how it affects you and helps you see the possibilities for what to do next.
This practice starts with questions like 'How do you feel?' and 'Where do you feel that feeling in your body?' to help to encourage pupils to connect positively with their emotions rather than seeking activities to mask or dissociate from them.
Keep an eye out next Wednesday and the rest of #StressAwarenessMonth2023 for #StressTipsfromSeren

“Reading gives us someplace to go when we have to stay where we are.”– Mason Cooley
A 2009 study at the University of Sussex found that reading can reduce stress by up to 68% by reading we relax our bodies by lowering our heart rates and easing the tension in our muscles.
