Wellbeing Champions Launch: 'Feel Good Friday'

19th Nov 2025

Exciting news from our Wellbeing Champions!

This week, our school’s Wellbeing Champions held a productive and enthusiastic meeting to plan the launch of 'Feel Good Fridays', a new initiative designed to promote positivity, community spirit and overall wellbeing across our school.

One Friday each month will become a 'Feel Good Friday'. On these days, pupils will benefit from an extended, outdoor, break and pupils may wear non-uniform. Pupils will also enjoy a tuck shop run and managed by our P7 pupils. This will give them an excellent opportunity to develop leadership, teamwork and organisational skills. All funds raised will go directly to the PTA, contributing to school events, resources and activities that will benefit every pupil.

To help bring this idea to life, pupils wrote a persuasive letter to Mrs Miller to request permission to introduce the exciting initiative. Their thoughtful arguments and strong writing skills made a powerful impression, and it was clear how much effort and enthusiasm had gone into the letter. With such convincing points, it was very difficult to say no!
