And that's a wrap for Health and Wellbeing Week!

A BIG THANK YOU to all of our pupils, past pupils, parents, staff and friends.

I hope you all gained something from the week and can use this going forward.

Even the smallest of changes can have a big impact on your life.

** See below for daily photos **

We hope you will get involved and try some of the activities this week.

Take a break from your normal school routine and enjoy some fun, family activities while recognising the beauty we have around us and being grateful for all that we have.

Let’s try and have lots of fun and please send any pictures or videos of this week to [email protected].
We will be updating the Clonburris website and Twitter account with any pictures and videos we receive. Anyone who gets involved in the week will be entered in a draw for some great prizes.

The daily activity sheet is something that we hope you will enjoy filling in at the end of every day, you can send in a picture of it when it is done or if you want to keep it personal that is fine too.

​We hope you have a great week!!!

Hopefully you can try some of the Sports Day activities shown in our Teacher Video, and remember some activities can be done indoors or over the next few days if the weather isn't good to us.

It was neither sunny nor warm but the Tyrell family enjoyed the vast open space.

The sound of the sea and the fresh air is very calming and relaxing.
