HAPPI (Health and Positive Personal Insight) sessions are incorporated into the school week in various ways; Forest School, Yoga, PE and Sport. 

During these sessions, our pupils have the chance to focus on their sense of wellbeing, personal development and the natural environment.  They are planned around ‘The 5 Ways to Wellbeing’: positive emotion, engagement, relationships, meaning and purpose and accomplishment.

Forest School: Led by Mrs Stockdale and set in our beautiful school surroundings, this provides children with the opportunity to learn about and take notice of nature and the world around them, problem-solve in a team and create wonderful projects with natural materials. Each class also has the opportunity to take part in our Forest School Fire session, the highlight being to toast marshmallows! You can find out more about the exciting activities on our 'Forest School' page.

Connect and Keep Active with Yoga: Physical activity and mindfulness are the focus, of this activity led by Mrs Ellis from Kymm Yoga. Read more about what this group gets up to on our 'Connect and Keep Active: Yoga' page.      

PE and Sport: All our children work with a qualified sports coach each week and participate in a wide range of activities, including gym, dance, athletics and team games. They also take part in regular sports festivals, which include a gym festival, multi-sports festival and a football tournament. 

They also participate in additional physical activities, drama workshops and an Indian dance workshop. You can read more about these and more on our 'PE and Sport' page.    

Health Eating: We also believe that knowing about healthy eating is an important part of our children’s learning and wellbeing. Every child receives cookery lessons from our professional chef, once a term, working in small groups to learn simple food technology skills and techniques. Chef also talks to the children about how to eat healthily and make the right food choices. You can read more about this on our 'Healthy Eating' page.
