Life Education with Muriel and Harold the Giraffe

LIFE EDUCATION CARAVAN AT POMARIA

It was great seeing Harold the Giraffe and Muriel this term and we learned about 'unique' and how we are are unique from our family and friends.

Muriel taught us that everyone has different parts of our bodies have like a special pattern that make us different - like a barcode on library books or food packages.  Our special patterns are on our fingers, toes, in our eyes and on our tongues.

We are also unique because we are good at some things and the things we might be bad at or don't like doing then another person might be good at them but not so good at the things you are good at.

We learned about personalities and how we all look different and do things differently.  Our body shape and sizes are made up differently from other people too.

Harold wants all the children to drink plenty of water so we don't get dehydrated and he wants us to have breakfast in the morning to keep our brains working throughout the morning.

HAUORA means well-being, so we need to take care of our bodies and make sure we feed it the right foods, do plenty of exercise and clean our bodies and brush our teeth, in order to keep it healthy.
