Our workshops talk about the importance of sleep and shows children how much sleep they need and how this will help their concentration throughout the day.
A-life activities are directly linked to the curriculum for science, PSHE, PE and healthy schools and have many cross-curricula links to geography, history and numeracy, as well as encouraging children to read and take part in teamworking activities.
All children learn in different ways and our hands-on activities encourage children to use visual, kinestetic and audio learning in a fun and unforgettable lesson. Children, teachers and parents often comment on how much the children have learnt and facts and information they have remembered.
Our workshops teach and encourage children to enjoy a healthy, balanced diet, increase their fitness, ensure they are getting enough sleep, drinking 6-8 glasses of water and much more. All of which are well know to improve academic performance and concentration.
Healthy living is well worth investing in. One of our activities for KS2 shows the effects of smoking on health and wealth, highlighting the fact that an average smoker spends £120,000 in a lifetime.
The hands-on nature of our workshops allow all abilities to have a fun learning day.
