Year 7 -10 PE and Health have been learning about the red (survival brain), green (thinking brain) and yellow (emotional brain). They have learnt that sometimes things that stress us out can make our emotional brain get in the way of our thinking brain. We acted this out in the gym, where the yellow brains tried to block the green brains from passing the ball to the red brains. We learnt it's hard to use our green brain to be creative, learn, make decisions or be empathetic if we have stress that is making the yellow brain get in the way.
