Our Pshe growing up activity sheet year 5 core features the BookFlik characters, including Nova the curious owl and Leo the gentle lion, who guide children through thoughtful exercises.

By using these familiar characters, we ensure the tone remains warm, encouraging, and age-appropriate, helping to de-stigmatise sensitive topics.
Teachers can use this resource as a standalone lesson starter or as the foundation for a wider unit on health and wellbeing.
