The wellbeing of students
and families is so important, particularly during this
challenging time. To make sure we focus on wellbeing, NPS is making Wednesday 1st September ‘Wellbeing
Wednesday’. Please replace as many of Wednesday’s
learning activities as you like with ideas from the wellbeing activity grid attached to this week’s learning activities.
Feel free to have your child complete an activity from the grid whenever you like and remember, as always, only do what is manageable for
you and your child.
