Whitehouse Common Primary -

Play Leaders

A report written by Grace M:

Firstly, we matched words to find out the qualities needed to be a successful Play Leader. These were things like: teamwork and communication. 

After that, we played a range of games that we could use in the future to help our younger pupils have fun and be more active. Games like: Traffic Lights and Pirate Ship. We added our own instructions to make them even more exciting to play!

There are 14 Play Leaders who all received the training - we are all in Year 6 and have a special pin badge and lanyard to show our school role. We can't wait to help our younger children be more active.

Keeping bodies and minds healthy at home

Go Noodle is a fantastic resource that has an 'at home' section full of movement and mindfullness guided video sessions, activities and games. Most children have used Go Noodle on the PE ipads at school, and the 'at home' website section is free. The activities are super for burning energy and balancing busy, or worried minds; the image below is a link.
