We had a fantastic time joining schools across the country for The Big School Workout with Joe Wicks during Mental Health Awareness Week.
The children loved taking part in the live workout and showed brilliant enthusiasm and energy. There were lots of smiles as we exercised together and thought about how being active can help us feel healthy in both our bodies and minds.
We talked about how exercise can help us:
- feel happier and calmer
- build confidence
- improve our focus and concentration
- look after our mental wellbeing
It was wonderful to come together as a class and enjoy such a positive shared experience.
Help at home by taking a short family walk, dancing to music in the kitchen or doing a quick workout together. Even a few minutes of movement can help boost our mood and energy levels.
