Year 5 are continuing to complete their Relationship and sex education lessons and we have been discussing how our emotions change during puberty. The children understood that during puberty, they will expect a change in their hormones. This can impact on how they feel. We talked about how they can manage these changes, especially when they are feeling low, sad or angry. They cam up with some great ideas of how to relax and talk time to look after themselves, such as: having a bath, spending time outside, reading a book or even doing some art.
