The Amber Flag Committee worked very hard to organise another very successful Wellness Week for Kilcornan National School. They planned lots of fun and relaxing activities that were enjoyed by everybody throughout the week.
Thankful Tuesday took place on 6th February. All classes drew pictures on post its and wrote down what they are thankful for. They placed the post its on the Thankful Tuesday board in the school hall.
On Well-being Wednesday, the boys and girls brought their favourite books to school and read them during DEAR (Drop Everything and Read) time.
All classes took part in guided meditation on Thoughtful Thursday. They brought their blankets and pillows to school and listened to relaxing music in their classes while finding a comfortable spot.
To finish Wellness Week, Juniors to Sixth Class took part in yoga with Ashling on Friendly Friday. The children acted out different animal poses and they were very relaxed during the yoga workshop. They also wore colourful clothes to school and a fundraiser for Pieta House was held. 256 euro was the total amount raised. Thanks very much to everyone who donated.
Each day, the boys and girls had musical yard and danced to their favourite music!
Wellness Week 2025 was another great success and it is a step closed to earning our third Amber Flag. Well done everyone!
