Well-being Resources 

As a school we have been aware of the difficulties that restrictions introduced due to the CV-19 emergency have caused for parents, carers, students and other members of the school community. As a result we created this page to post articles, information and advice that might help to give people a boost during the pandemic.

Although this page was created as a response to the pandemic, well-being remains an important concern so we intend to retain this information and hope that you will find it helpful.   

Wellbeing News

Produced by our School Counsellor, Jo Axton, we hope that Wellbeing News will help to carry you through a happy and healthy Summer Holiday.

Please follow the link to the 30-Day Well-being Challenge. This consists of 30 days worth of suggestions for enjoyable activities but please note that it was written before the CV-19 Emergency and some of the ideas will need to be adapted to take into account the current rules, so that they can be carried out while safely observing social distancing and other CV-19 related rules.
