FEEL GOOD FRIDAY 

Wednesday 3rd February 2021

Dear Children, Parents/Carers and Teachers,

First of all I would like to say how proud we are of you all! For the vast majority of you, your work this half term has been brilliant and we are so pleased with how you are engaging with remote learning – we understand it’s not easy! We are conscious that you are all spending much more time looking at screens than you usually would during a normal school day. This is bad for both your physical and mental wellbeing. For this reason, Barden has decided to introduce screen-free ‘Feel Good Friday’. Every Friday Afternoon, we want you to put your devices down – rest your eyes, recharge your batteries and have FUN with your family! We have uploaded a Feel Good Friday activity list to our school website - https://www.barden.lancs.sch.uk/feel-good-friday-4/ - and here you can choose from a wide range of fun, creative activities to complete as a family. At Barden we completely understand the difficulties that Remote Learning can place upon families. With this in mind, we feel it is extremely important to support the wellbeing of our whole school community. If you have other ideas that are not on our activity list, please feel free to do these things but please make sure you stay away from the computer (that’s all we ask). I would also like to ask that you send any photographs/videos of the activities you complete together to your class email addresses. I would love to choose some to go on our school website and Facebook page (only children with permission for this will be chosen). Finally, although school might not be fully open currently, we are always here to support you if needed. Please look after yourselves and remember to contact school if you need anything.

Kind Regards Barden Primary School
