Dear Upperby Primary School Children,
I hope you are all well and keeping busy! I am missing you all so much, especially all of your smiles and hugs! During your time at home I will be posting things on this page, these are things that you might want to dip into and try or just look at. These activities are just for fun or if you want something to help you relax or do something a little different! If you would like to send some pictures to the email homework@upperbycdc.org.uk - it is up to you, I will share pictures with your teacher and will also add some pictures to the Home Learning Gallery. No pressure, just have fun and take care of yourself!
Hugs and smiles!
Miss Wilson

Hello Everyone,
Tomorrow is the last day of Mental Health Awareness week but not the last day of us looking after each other, being kind and taking care of our families. Your mental health is very important to us. We want you to be happy and always remember that everything we do is to help you grow and develop, you all mean so much to us! I am missing our PSHE lessons, it has been amazing seeing and hearing that some of you have managed to have a go at the activities on this page. Remember they are for fun and will hopefully make you feel good! Anyone can join in with them! (Even parents!)
See you all soon!
Miss Wilson
Why is online safety so important?
There are lots of fun, exciting and great things you can do on the internet. Playing games and staying connected to friends can be so much fun. But it is really important to understand how to stay safe online and look after your mental health. Remember what KS told us about staying safe? Who are your trusted adults? What can you do if you get 'Yukky' feelings and feel that social media is affecting your mental health?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
19.5.20...Be kind to yourself and think about the positives in your life. What is important to you and what do you look forward to?
Why not try some drawing or colouring to help you relax this week? You could do something like this with your siblings or parents.
If you would like to have a go at creating your own, please send some pictures to the email homework@upperbycdc.org.uk I would love to see your creations!

This week (18th - 24th May) is Mental Health Awareness Week. The focus is 'Kindness', protecting our mental health, particularly showing kindness to ourselves and others, will help us cope and recover from the difficult time we are experiencing at the moment. Kindness helps build self-esteem, friendships, relationships and school and community spirit.
Kindness is something we all need in our lives!

Hello Everyone!
In my house we have been doing lots of activities this week that allow us to be kind to ourselves. Sometimes we need to remember to take some time and do things that make us feel relaxed. My girls love their daily walk, scoot or cycle, it helps them feel calm and cheers them up if they are missing their friends. We seem to visit the bay quite a bit at the moment, so this week we decided to take some sketching pencils with us and draw. It was very relaxing and made us all feel happy and settled.
Missing you all!

Hello everyone! We have had a lovely time in the sunshine last weekend. In our house we celebrated VE on Friday by making bunting, a spitfire, posters and printing with paint and sponges. We talked about so many things; what it would have been like during the war; the sacrifices and difficulties, children being evacuated, the clothes and rations. We listened to an air raid siren and watched Bedknobs and Broomsticks after our picnic in the garden.
My girls had the swimming pool out on Saturday, it was so lovely, they enjoyed fishing whilst I had a very busy time sorting things out for someone's 6th birthday on Sunday. I even baked and iced a cake (not too bad for my first attempt at icing).
Missing you all lots!

Hello everyone!
I hope everyone is having fun at home and staying positive. Sometimes it's very hard to be positive when we are missing our friends and family. However, lockdown will not last for forever and we'll soon all be back together again! I am missing our PSHE lessons so much... I hope you are using some of the mediation and relaxation techniques we use in school to stay positive and relax with your wonderful families.
A special shout out to all of those children working on the kindness activities from the Kindness calendars. I am really enjoying seeing your creations! Well done!
Love and Hugs,
Miss Wilson
