Morning Starlings,
You have been working SO hard this week and we are super impressed with all your effort. A big thank you to the grown ups for trying and uploading work to our homework function. We’ve never used this before so it’s all a learning curve so please bear with us!
For today, please do your home learning on maths, writing, phonics, spellings and a fitness activity. For Worship, take some time out to do a meditation with My Smiling Mind and Mrs Esling has read you a story for you to listen to today so please enjoy.

Worship
Today for our worship, we would like you to take part in a guided meditation on My Smiling Mind, just like we do in school. I hope you managed to set up an account last week. Follow the link: https://app.smilingmind.com.au/
In order to access the resources at the link below you will need to sign up to a free account (it only takes 2 minutes!) Once you have signed up, select the age category ‘12 and under’. Then you need to select which type of mindfulness activities you are interested in, I recommend choosing ‘improving wellbeing’. Finally select the resources for ‘3-6 year olds’ and you will now have access to 60+ mindfulness sessions that are great to help your child relax, unwind and switch off after a busy day of home learning.
Fitness Challenge
Warm up from the snow with some yoga in the winter wonderland version:
