Living and Learning: body image

Tuesday 01 July 2025

During the last two Living and Learning sessions, Year 3 have been discussing body image.

We started off by discussing the word ‘beauty‘ and what that means to different people. We realised that…

Everyone’s idea of beauty is different.

We talked about how media and advertising can make us think that beauty is to look one way or another.

However, some of these images may have been edited or changed to look a certain way. So, it is important that we do not compare ourselves to the images that we see online. Not everything we see online is real!

We thought about ourselves and how we are all beautiful in our own ways. Help at home: Reinforce the idea that not everything we see online is real. Can you think of something you love about yourself? 

It can be on the outside or inside.

“I am beautiful because…”

Now try it with someone else at home.

“You are beautiful because…”
