RAF Juno visits NJS!

‘The best Monday ever!’ Commented the staff and children after our visit from an RAF helicopter this morning! We’ve had a super day!

This visit followed on from a talk from an RAF pilot as part of our Raising Aspirations work earlier this year. Children today saw the helicopter land, had the opportunity to sit on the helicopter and ask questions, interviewed an air traffic control officer and had a tour of the outside of the helicopter with a pilot! The crew were amazing; they really engaged the children and the children were so excited to learn from them.

We are extremely grateful to the crew who visited us today, thank you for making memories for our NJS children.

4J absolutely loved learning facts about the Juno helicopter, meeting the crew and getting to sit inside. What an exciting morning!

MENTAL HEALTH MONDAY!

Good morning everyone,

This week I thought I would share a simple activity you could create at home. The emotion wheel below can be used with children of all ages, who are struggling to express their current feelings. The wheel gives children to chance to share how they are feeling and this can open many conversations at home.

Using the wheel on a regular basis will help children see the changing nature of their feelings and can help reduce anxiety around feeling a certain way. You could create the one I’ve provided or even design your own as a family!

Emotion Wheel

Have a lovely week,

Mrs Ollerenshaw x

Shropshire Cricket Fun

For the next few weeks, we are lucky enough to have Ryan Lockley into school with us, one of the Shropshire Cricket coaches. Ryan will be working with Y3 and Y5 children, helping them improve their cricket skills. Mr Moody, Mr Leonard and I might even learn some new skills hopefully.
