On Thursday 11 June, Year 11 and 12 Pastoral Care students participated in mindful activities organised by their Pastoral Care teachers. Students really enjoyed ‘being present’ in the activities that were on offer.
I would like to thank all the teachers for their enthusiasm, support and the way in which they thoroughly engaged the students. I was privy to wandering around to check out all the activities and these were the delightful things I saw:
• Colourful, fragrant slime;
• Students painting tiny figurines with Mr MacGregor and loving the challenge;
• Kids sitting quietly folding paper to make an awesome architectural building with Ms Saberi;
• Boys enjoying Mr de Nys’ wit whilst he explained how to write a limerick (some wrote a few of their own);
• A large group cooking brownies with Mrs McCourt whilst the students in the class upstairs breathed in the aroma;
• A large group of very active boys and girls sitting in silence and darkness with Miss Mutch and Mrs Shanahan – meditating and relaxing;
• A happy bunch of students running around the Barrie Holmes Stadium and expelling lots of energy with Mr Primer and Mr Buckley.
Well done to all who participated!
