Here in English Martyrs’ we put the children at the heart of every decision that we make.
We are starting a new initiative called ‘Feel Good Friday’ because we want to encourage our pupils and their families to take time to look after themselves, especially during this difficult time.
We fully understand the impact that Covid-19 has had on everyone and we want to do our bit to further support you all. We miss the smiling faces coming in the door every morning and we miss the positive buzz that we are accustomed to in our school. We hope that our boys and girls (and their families) are still having fun at home and that they are keeping their positive spirits up.
We know that motivation can be low some days and for that reason we feel that a Friday Pick-Me-Up would be much appreciated by everyone in our school.
Feel Good Friday is supposed to be an enjoyable, fun day and our teachers will not set any formal school work on Friday afternoon.
We are going to base out ‘Feel Good Friday’ around our BE-attitudes for Learning, and each week we will have a focus BE-attitude that you will have the freedom to explore how every you choose!
We do ask that you share some pictures with us of some of the things that you got up to so that we can share them with each other, and see what we have all been doing!
You can email the pictures/videos to feelgoodfriday@englishmartyrsrc.co.uk or your class teacher and we will make a presentation of all the different images that we receive.
We hope that you have great fun on Feel Good Friday’ and as always, we welcome feedback and suggestions.
