Yoga and Relaxation for P1 and P2

11th Jun 2026

Today we had our final visit of the year from the Primary One children from Bushvalley. Our focus today was on relaxation and feeling happy. The children were split into two groups and rotated between activities. The first one was mini-me yoga in the school hall. The children practised their trampoline and dragon breaths and then shook out all their negative energy in preparation for a round of yoga freeze. Various children picked a card from the selection and we all discussed how it made us feel and tried to perfect it. They focused on strength, balance, flexibility and being happy. We finished with a short guided meditation and the mantra ‘I am happy.’ The other group had fun playing with their friends in our classroom. This is one of the things the children said made them happiest. They built with Lego, Duplo and magnetic blocks, dressed up and took on roles in our castle and coloured in summer themed pictures. The children all had a lovely day together and look forward to our final online session before we say goodbye for the summer.
