This week's student Wellness Wednesday post focused on the therapeutic benefits of photography as a way to relax and engage with both the indoors and outdoors. Photography offers an excellent opportunity to unwind, express emotions, and challenge the senses. Whether it's capturing the beauty of nature or exploring creative angles in everyday objects, photography provides a simple yet powerful way for students to connect with the world around them and find peace in the process. 

As we head into the half term holiday, we are encouraging students to use either a camera or a smartphone to take photographs. This activity not only allows them to explore their creativity but also provides a wonderful way to document their holiday experiences. Whether they are at home or visiting new places, photography can serve as a memorable reminder of their time away from school, creating lasting images to look back on. 

We also see this as a great opportunity for students to bond with friends or family. Photography can be a fun and engaging activity to share, allowing everyone to discover new perspectives and create lasting memories together. We encourage parents and guardians to get involved by joining in the photography activities with your child or teenager. It's a wonderful way to connect, share experiences, and enjoy quality time together while supporting their creative exploration. We hope this encourages students to take a break, enjoy their surroundings, and experience the calming benefits of capturing moments through a lens. Have a lovely half term
