In keeping with this half-term’s SEAL theme of being ‘good to be me’, your child should discuss all the ways that they should feel good about themselves.
They should also talk about why their friends should feel good about themselves.

The homework this week is talk time and is due in Wednesday 23 March.
I can talk about what ‘Red Nose Day’ means to me.
Red Nose Day will impact on the children in many different ways, and this a brilliant opportunity to discuss your child’s thoughts and feelings about the world around them.
As this is talk time homework, I would like to remind you that it is not necessary for your child to come up with something creative and artistic. A few simple notes on the discussion you’ve had with your child will suffice. However, it’s a good idea to think about some new wow words and openers that can be used in the talk time at home, at school and in the future eg
- Although I liked it, …
- My opinion is that …
- I prefer …
- Comic Relief can raise substantial amounts …
- The money raised might considerably improve …

SEAL statement 14 March
‘I can help someone with a worry’ is the new SEAL statement for this week. We will be looking at developing empathy skills to recognise if others are worried and how children can help others in these situations.
Each class has a SEAL box where children can ‘post’ any suggestions, news or worries to share with their teacher, class or school councillors. In addition to this is the worry box, available for the whole school to use, monitored by Mrs Wilson, our Learning Mentor.
