Today is international fitness day! During circle times this morning we discussed what exercise is and why it is so important. We discovered that exercise is all about moving our bodies to stay healthy and that there are lots of different types of exercise such as running, swimming and dancing! This morning we headed to the forest to do some yoga. We learned that yoga helps us to stretch our bodies and get stronger and can also help us relax. The children participated in some alphabet yoga whilst surrounded by nature. We relaxed our bodies and listened to the sounds around us before beginning some letter shaped poses. They then tried some more difficult yoga poses where they stretched their arms and legs and even some where they had to balance on one leg! We also found an interesting looking insect to have a close look at! Well done everyone.
