Brain Based Learning

8th Apr 2025

Over the last few months P6 have been working on developing our brains, based on ideas and activities inspired  by Dr Davies from BrainBox N.I.
We have loved strengthening our core, improving our balance, integrating our left side and right side brain and getting the neurons in our brains to grow, fired up and ready to make connections with other neurons.

The children and I have noticed an improvement in their academic and cognitive abilities. Their concentration and reading fluency has increased, their readiness to learn is heightened. This alongside the enhanced understanding of concepts and quickened processing speed is empowering the children to be the best versions of themselves.

We look forward to developing this further so that we can maximise our potential, succeed and have fun along the journey!  

Here is a just a little snapshot of some of the activities we are doing!
