One Voice Agenda 25/03/2025

Welcome back to One Voice!

Christian Values- Respect

Be Respectful is one of our school expectations. We have spoken lately about being honest and using manners. There are times during the school day where children need to be reminded to be respectful. One of these times is during Worship. When we come into the hall it is a time to listen, reflect and celebrate. Teachers will be watching to see who is being respectful during this time by sitting quietly and listening to the adult leading the worship. Why is it important to be a good listener at this time?

News

We are now in Spring and we are seeing lots of new plants and flowers in the playground. Thank you to the children who are letting them grow so that they can be enjoyed by everyone and create habitats for insects. Please make sure you are not running in the planters, this is not safe and prevents our flowers from growing.

Important dates this week:

- Sunday is Mothering Sunday. A day to celebrate Mothers and women in your lives and all the fantastic things they      do for you.

-Next week on the 4^th April we will be having a Play Street before school starts 😊

Discussion: Making good choices

All of us make thousands of choices every day, we all choose different things because we are all different and that is ok. One thing we need to learn about making choices is that our choices can have consequences that can affect others. Sometimes making a good choice may not be the easiest thing to do but it is important that you make the right choice. Making a good choice is kind, brave and keeps everyone safe. Making good choices makes you happy. It also makes those around you happy.

Split into groups and discuss these scenarios- what is the good choice to make? Please share with the rest of the group

1.     You see that another person has a bag of sweets that you really want because you are not allowed sweets at home….

2.     You hear some children making fun of another child in your class who looks upset….

3.     You are playing a game online and someone you don’t know starts to talk to you….

4.     During a lesson when a teacher is talking you feel tired and bored…..

Share your thoughts with the group and remember to be a good listener whilst others are talking, you might hear something inspirational!

Positive Affirmation for today:

Practicing morning affirmations can help you start your day on the right track. It puts you in a good headspace for tackling the rest of the day. This kind of positive self-talk becomes easier with practice and when you remember them they will pop into your head when you need it most. Can you remember last weeks? (I am proud of myself)

I make good choices.

Thank you and have a great week! 😊
