Yoga Starts Monday Mornings

Posted on 26/02/2018

In January Ferndown Middle School launched a brand new weekly Yoga club . The club runs on a Monday morning before school, starting at 8.15. Yoga is a positive way to start the day and encourages a mind-set that is ready and prepared for learning. Below are just some of the ways in which yoga can benefit young people:

  • Develop body awareness.
  • Learn how to use their bodies in a healthy way.
  • Manage stress through breathing, awareness, meditation and healthy movement.
  • Build concentration.
  • Increase their confidence and positive self-image.
  • Feel part of a healthy, non-competitive group.

On a weekly basis, Waitrose in Ringwood kindly donate fruit for our children.  Ferndown Middle would like to say a huge thank you to Waitrose for helping out students to start the week in a healthy and positive way.

If you are interested in joining Yoga club, please speak to Miss White Young or Miss Hurst.
