PSHE
At Fleetville Infant and Nursery School, we are committed to nurturing well-rounded, confident individuals by embedding personal growth into our everyday culture. These foundations are underpinned by our values the Four Bees-encouraging everyone to be kind, safe, respectful, and responsible-our school environment cultivates high standards of character, mutual respect, and managing ourselves. Through our structured Jigsaw PSHE curriculum and the daily use of the Zones of Regulation to build emotional literacy and self-regulation, children develop a deep understanding of their feelings and healthy relationships. This is enhanced by our bespoke 'Little Leaders' programme, which fosters vital independence, resilience, and real-world life skills so children can overcome challenges and thrive. Pupil voice and active citizenship are championed through our Caring School Committee, empowering children to drive positive change within our community. Together, these purposeful initiatives ensure our children are exceptionally well-prepared to become responsible, active, and respectful citizens in modern society.

During Being in my world, the children embark on a journey to discover where they fit in the world around them. Starting with themselves-their unique traits, feelings, and families-pupils gradually zoom out to explore their school, local community, and the wider world. Through interactive stories, creative crafts, and thoughtful discussions, pupils will build self-awareness, celebrate differences, and learn what it means to be a caring, active member of their community.
-
Blue Zone (Low Energy): Represents low states of alertness or energy. Common feelings include sadness, tiredness, boredom, or illness.
-
Green Zone (Optimal State): Represents a calm, focused, and happy state of mind. This is the ideal zone for learning, working, and social connection.
-
Yellow Zone (Elevated Energy / Caution): Represents heightened alertness or early stress. Common feelings include anxiety, excitement, frustration, silliness, or restlessness—states where self-control starts to take more effort.
-
Red Zone (Extremely High Energy / Danger): Represents intense, overwhelming feelings like intense rage, terror, hyper-excitement, or panic, where a person often feels out of control.
None of the zones are "bad" or "wrong." The core objective is not to remain in the Green Zone at all times, but rather for children to recognize when they shift zones and build personalised tools-such as deep breathing, sensory breaks, or positive self-talk-to transition back to the state where they thrive.
