Before half term, Year 6 were extremely fortunate to have a visit from Reiki teacher and author Samantha Goddard and illustrator Owen Williams. Sam and Owen have worked together on a book, "Finding Ray's Key" which they shared with the children. "Finding Ray's Key" tells the story of a young boy who is looking for the key to happiness, and as the story develops he realises that the happiness he is looking for is actually within him.
Sam shared mindfulness breathing techniques with the children and we spent a very relaxing session focusing on our breathing and listening to sounds around and within us.
Owen then led a mindfulness art workshop where we mindmapped and drew things that made us happy or contented.
We are grateful to Sam and Owen for coming to share the book and their mindfulness techniques with us.
Thank you for your interest in our school. The children, staff, parents and governors have created our Rainbow Values at Exminster Community Primary School.
