Scoil Mhuire recently celebrated our first 'Wellbeing Week' and both pupils and staff hugely enjoyed taking some time to appreciate the importance of our physical, social and emotional health.
Each day had a different theme: Mindful Monday, Thankful Tuesday, Wellbeing Wednesday, Thoughtful Thursday and Friendship Friday.
Senior classes were paired with junior classes to engage in mindfulness activities, board games, playground games and 'rainbow moments' - finding something good in every day. Each child added a leaf to our beautiful 'Tree of Gratitude'.
The children also took part in a poster competition based on the themes above and the entries have been brilliant - great thoughtfulness and talent shown by all.
Friday was a non-uniform day in aid of Pieta House and Scoil Mhuire was a sea of colour!
It was a really lovely week and we will continue to foster and develop all of these themes throughout the school and in our daily lives.
Thanks to Mrs Gallagher for all her preparation for this fabulous week.
