I can... I have... I am...

Well done Birch Class! You’ve got through an entire half-term of remote learning. Everyone at school is super proud of you. You’ve managed to learn how to use an entirely new way of working, manage your own time with your own timetables, become more confident being ‘on-screen’ for Google Meets and Collective Worship as well as support and help one another with this tricky lockdown life. You’ve been brilliant – don’t forget that!
​
In PHSE, and looking after our mental health this week, I asked you to write a few sentences for these sentence starters… ‘I am… I can… I have…’ I’d like to share (anonymously) some of the beautiful things you wrote…
I am…
a loving playful sister.
very lucky to have my family
a good friend
a good cook
talented
funny
I have…
a lovely family and a gorgeous dog
friends with a growth mindset
lots of friends
guinea pigs
a fantastic school
a loving family
the best friends ever who are always there for me
I can…
go for glorious runs
rely on many people in my life
ask for help at any time
help to cheer others up
love my family
bake amazing cookies and cakes
 
Life is tough right now, but try to focus on all of those brilliant things that make you, you! Fingers crossed life will return to some kind of normal soon, but until then, have a wonderful half-term, leave Google Classroom alone for a week, have a break from screens if you can and have a rest. You’ve earned it!
