Welcome to the Lakeside Wellbeing Class

Hello!  A very warm welcome to Lakeside Wellbeing Class.  Our class is part of Lakeside Primary School.  These are photographs of the outside of our school.

The Wellbeing class arrival times are between 9:30a.m. and 9:50a.m. All children will be offered breakfast at 10:00a.m. every morning. The departure times are between 2:10p.m and 2:30p.m. For further information please read the Wellbeing Transition Document. 

Information will be regularly sent on SeeSaw (please ask the class teacher for a QR code). 

Who are the grown-ups in your Wellbeing Class?

This is Mrs Hart, the Wellbeing Class teacher.  She loves walking her dog, George.  She loves cooking, playing games and reading stories with funny voices!

This is Mr Haines, the Wellbeing Class teacher.   He loves going on long walks and running.  He loves watching Cardiff City FC and playing football outside at break times.

This is Mrs Sherman, a Wellbeing Class teaching assistant.  She loves all things cosy.  She loves playing lots of fun games which help with feelings, listening and making hot chocolate.

This is Miss Jones, a Wellbeing Class teaching assistant.  She loves doing arts and crafts and is a festival face painter, so be prepared to get messy with paint. This is Miss Corley, a Wellbeing Class teaching assistant.  She loves spending time with her friends.  She loves gardening, doing science experiments and painting. This is Mrs Mitchell, our Headteacher.  She loves going on her bike and eating chocolate!  In school, Mrs Mitchell loves to listen to children read, and to come and have breakfast with us in the Wellbeing Class.

You will see other grown-ups in your Wellbeing Class and around the school, like Mrs Pritchard, Miss Strange and Mrs Rundle, who work in the school office, and Mr Carey the caretaker.  They are all looking forward to meeting you. What will I wear? This is our school jumper.  It is turquoise and has the dragonfly badge on it.  You wear it with a white or navy-blue polo shirt, and navy-blue trousers or jogging bottoms. These tops can be bought from YC Sports, Crwys Road, Cardiff.  Please ask if you need us to provide uniform as we have many preloved items here at school.  Please can all clothing be labelled with your name in case it gets mixed up with other children’s jumpers.

What does my classroom look like?

What sorts of things will I do in Lakeside?

Play games to explore feelings and emotions.  Enjoy a hot chocolate and share snacks together.  Share stories and listening together.  Create our own recipes and explore our senses through cooking.  Draw and paint as a way of showing how we are feeling.  Enjoy lots of outside time to practice sharing and turn-taking, developing co-ordination and using our energetic bodies!  Numeracy and Literacy activities will take place in a small group or a 1:1 basis to boost confidence and develop skills.  Practice reading using books and the internet with Bug Club.
