Wellbeing is at the heart of Putney. Supporting good physical and psychological health is core to all elements of our positive and happy school. Learning and connection are keys to wellbeing, and we still have both of these, even in lockdown.

From Monday 4 – Friday 8 May we remotely celebrated our annual Wellbeing Within week, focusing on wellbeing while online schooling.

Each day of the week was given an uplifting name and was filled with inspiring wellbeing ideas and activities. From Happy Monday, Tech-Free Tuesday to Breathe Friday. See below for a few examples of things we got up to.

We have also been keeping an eye on the daily tips from our wellbeing guidance on the Meaningful May action calendar, you can click here to view a larger version of the calendar.

Both students and staff have been sending each other photos and videos of their wellbeing moments at home. Whether it’s playing board games, creating arts and crafts, listening to a certain song or spending some time with the family pet. Even though we are all busy working from home, it’s always good to remember to make time for a wellbeing activity. Below is Martina B, Year 7, paper crafting some transforming ninja stars!
