LR: Year 5 Trip
Year 5 visited BAPS Shri Swaminarayan
Mandir in Neasden last Tuesday 26th
February. This was part of the Year 5 RE
scheme of work on Hinduism. The children
visited the Upper sanctum of the Mandir, the
Haveli cultural centre and the ‘Understanding
Hinduism’ exhibition. The children were very
interested in everything they saw and had a
great time.

FAIRLEY HOUSE FLYER
CS Year 6 Maths
Today we did a revision exercise on different
types of quadrilaterals (eg. Square, rectangle,
rhombus, kite, trapezium) - groups of four
pupils had to create a given shape on
command. This task required them to recall
learning from yesterday on what each shape
looks like, and it involved team work plus a
lot of fun!

LR - PSHEE (Personal, Social, Health, & Economic Education)
In PSHEE lessons this term, students at Lambeth Rd have been learning about the
Zones of Emotional Regulation.
We’ve had fun learning the vocabulary and body language relating to a large range of
emotional states and we’ve shared stories of times we have been in each of the 4
‘zones of emotion’.
The zones are described below:
The Red Zone is used to describe extremely heightened states of alertness and intense
emotions. A person may be elated or experiencing anger, rage, explosive behaviour, devastation,
or terror when in the Red Zone.
The Yellow Zone is also used to describe a heightened state of alertness and elevated emotions,
however one has more control when they are in the Yellow Zone. A person may be experiencing
stress, frustration, anxiety, excitement, silliness, the wiggles, or nervousness when in the Yellow
Zone.
The Green Zone is used to describe a calm state of alertness. A person may be described as
happy, focused, content, or ready to learn when in the Green Zone. This is the zone where
optimal learning occurs.
The Blue Zone is used to describe low states of alertness and down feelings such as when one
feels sad, tired, sick, or bored.
The Zones can be compared to traffic signs. When given a green light or in the Green Zone, one
is “good to go”. A yellow sign means be aware or take caution, which applies to the Yellow
Zone. A red light or stop sign means stop, and when one is the Red Zone this often is the
case. The Blue Zone can be compared to the rest area signs where one goes to rest or re-
energize.
But on Friday the 1st of March we learnt some bad news in assembly. People across the country
have been losing control of their emotions and children at FHS have been visited by a set of Social
Villains who like nothing more than to see children cast into the blue, yellow and red zones!
LR: PSHEE Assembly
Today’s PSHEE assembly at Lambeth Road featuring the villains: ‘Rock Brain’, ‘Glassman’, ‘Worry
Wall’ and ‘Energy Edith’. Miss Jaynes led with ‘Superflex’ strategies to deal with these villains………

The villains to watch out for are:
But the good news is that we managed to defeat them all by thinking of strategies that we could
use to get back into the green zone for learning. So now we feel confident to practise them over
the next few weeks.
Please use the same language at home to help us to understand our own and other people’s
feelings. We know that you’ll have lots of great ideas to help us get back into the green zone
when we’ve entered the blue/yellow or red zones! Wish us luck!!
