Un weekend plein d’adrénaline / A weekend full of Adrenaline

Ce week-end, les élèves de Concha Annexe ont eu l’occasion de participer à une multitude d’activités sportives passionnantes et uniques.

Ces activités ont deux objectifs principaux. D’une part, elles permettent de faire découvrir de nouveaux sports ou activités et d’inciter les élèves à prendre des risques, à sortir de leur zone de confort et à développer un goût pour la découverte. D’autre part, ces activités visent également à maintenir une certaine stabilité et discipline, encourageant nos étudiants à s’entraîner régulièrement et à progresser dans un domaine particulier. Ainsi, à la fin de l’année scolaire, ils peuvent comparer leur évolution.

 

This weekend, students from Concha Annexe had the opportunity to participate in a variety of exciting and unique sports activities.

These activities have two main objectives. On one hand, they aim to introduce students to new sports or activities and encourage them to take risks, step out of their comfort zones, and develop a taste for exploration. On the other hand, these activities also serve to maintain a certain level of stability and discipline, motivating our students to train regularly and excel in a specific field. Thus, at the end of the school year, they can compare their progress

Racing to Success

Joe & gang threw it up a gear this Saturday and took off on a run, enjoying the natural beauty of the town with every step.

With the rate he was going, he must’ve been trying to get over to France to watch Ireland vs South Africa in person! COYBIG!

Our Wellbeing, our Priority! (Chapter 1.2: Nurturing Healthy Minds and Bodies)

We conducted our second meeting today, focusing on the topic of sleep.

Our second key takeaway is: “What tools can I utilise to enhance the quality of my sleep?”

During the meeting, the boys had the opportunity to watch a recording featuring our student advocates and some special guests, including Mr Usher, who shared valuable tips on how to achieve restful sleep:

1. Avoid heavy meals before bedtime.
2. Incorporate stretching exercises before going to bed.
3. Turn off screens at least 30 minutes before bedtime and adjust screen brightness to night mode.
4. Engage in reading a book.
5. Practice meditation techniques.
6. Consider drinking warm milk.

As a challenge, each boy has selected one or two of these recommendations to implement and will record their progress in their planners. We are eager to see if these changes positively impact the quality of their sleep. Stay tuned for the results, which will be presented in our monthly assembly next week.

Thank you for your attention and involvement!
