This week in our Safeguarding Assembly we took part in Water safety education. At Nettlesworth, we recognise that this is a vital life skill, but it doesn’t have to be boring. So, we have worked alongside the Durham School’s Sports Partnership and delivered the activity packs from Rookie Lifeguards Training to get across the importance of Water Safety to the children.
For more information about this see the packs below:
Today we have had lots of fun with Marie-Claire learning about the different ways that we can complete our daily Active 60.

Class 1 had lots of fun doing some active yoga. We learnt lots of yoga positions and could do these whilst moving around the hall. We explored different yoga poses on our spots and added animal actions to remember them. Marie-Claire was amazed at our balance and control 🙂
We worked on our active yoga. We demonstrated our fundamental movement skills as well as our flexible moves.

Class 3 had lots of fun doing some active yoga. We learnt lots of yoga positions and could do these whilst moving around the hall. We learnt how to do yoga poses both on our own and with a partner. Marie-Claire was so impressed with our flexibility and balance.
This afternoon, Class 4 had the chance to take part in a Step Fit aerobics class as part our own Health & Wellbeing Day with Marie-Claire. We loved coming up with our own routines after learning the moves from Marie-Claire and are aiming to continue to do at least 60 minutes of being active every day – even when not in school! Well done everyone.
