A visit from the Life Education Bus
The children visited the Life Education Bus where Alison delivered a memorable life skills session aimed at equipping our children with the knowledge they need to make healthy choices. EYFS and KS1 took part in a session called 'My Wonderful Body' where they explored different food groups but also what else makes us healthy such as sleep, exercise and hygiene, while KS2 participated in a session called 'Decisions'. They explored the theme of drugs and the effect on body systems.
