In Year 2 we have been learning about keeping healthy. First we looked at exercise and being active and then we moved on to thinking about a healthy diet. We learned a healthy diet is a balanced diet. We explored food packaging and the traffic lights on different items and then we helped design a balanced meal for Lola after reading the story 'I Will Never Not Ever Eat a Tomato'.
We have been learning about empathy. We created a new empathy superhero to join our 'RESPECTERS' and we wrote some comic strips about how they save the day using empathy. We are going to continue looking at empathy and practise using it in our daily lives.

We are learning all about our new RESPECT wheel and the learning powers attached to it. This week we looked at resilience. We created some resilience superheroes that we will display in class to help remind us to be resilient in all aspects of our life. Don't give up, heroes are made by choice! Keep an eye out for some of the other members of the 'RESPECTERS' our superhero family coming soon!
As part of Year 3's PSHE curriculum we are learning that mental wellbeing is a normal part of daily life just like physical health. We also understand that it is important to talk about our feelings and seek support from a trusted adult.
To help us remember this we made emotions booklets. We had fun representing different emotions using our own thumbprints. Take a look:-
Last Week was Children's Mental Health Week and to support this Oakwood had a 'Dress to Express' Day in each year group. We can all express ourselves in the way we dress, showing everyone who we are and what we like. We accompanied that by expressing ourselves in other ways and being creative. Can you spot any of these in the photos?
Today we ready the story 'The Dot' in Year 1. We heard about a girl called Vashti who didn't think she could draw. With a little bit of support from her teacher, she found she could!
The children were all provided with a dot on their page. They created their very own piece of art using the dot. There were so many fantastic and unique ideas. Take a look at our creations.

Today Year 5 spent sometime thinking and reflecting at Southampton's Cenotaph, about those who lost their lives at War on this special day of remembrance.

4JH decided to document each day they chicks spent with us, filming little clips of what the chicks were up to. We loved having the chicks- and updating the video on their progress!

We can't believe that it has only been two weeks with our chick friends. We have been there with them though the risky stage of hatching. We have watched them feed and grow. Now that they are beginning to grow feathers it is time for us to say goodbye, on a special final afternoon together!
