Summer Term 2022/23 - Joseph Coelho

Our summer term Learning 4 Life Days focused on the theme of the Children’s Poet Laureate, Joseph Coelho. Children in Years 1- 6 were vertically grouped throughout the day and experienced a wonderful range of activities based on the fantastic poems created by Joseph Coelho. Our brilliant pupils continued to showcase their fantastic poetry skills in both composing poems and reciting them out loud. As you can see by the photographs, our children really were inspired by his work and Wainstalls School clearly has some amazing poets in our midst! 

Spring Term 2022/23 - Inspirational People

For our spring term Learning 4 Life days, all children from Classes 1 – Class 6 were vertically grouped, with the focus on learning about significant people from different cultures who inspire us and have made a difference in the world. Throughout the day, the children experienced opportunities to learn about a range of important people past and present, including Edmund Hilary/Tenzig Norgay, Joseph Coelho, Pele, Sophie Rider, Mae Jemison, Vera Wang and Dalai Lama.

Many thanks to all staff for organising and delivering this fantastic learning opportunity which really inspired and motivated our children to think about the positive impact that we all can have on the world and also about the incredible range of role models we can all learn from.

Autumn Term 2022/23 - Health and Well-being

Our Learning 4 Life day this term focussed on health and well-being. Time was set aside in our very hectic run up to Christmas to participate in a day of health and well-being activities. 

Classes throughout school were given a variety of options on how best to enjoy the day.  Children were given opportunity to be creative through creating Christmas stockings or Christmas cards, mindfulness colouring, practising yoga, learning about what well-being is, completing a well-being journal or simply reading a book for fun!

All our children throughout the school had a lovely day - many thanks to all the staff.
