In a society where children are feeling more under pressure than ever, helping children with their emotional wellbeing is a concern for many parents and teachers alike.
At St Anne’s we take the wellbeing of our children very seriously. In class, we have weekly RSHE lessons and we also have various programmes in school that we can offer to children who need support.
Wellbeing is when you feel good and enjoy your day to day life. The things that we do and the way that we think affects our wellbeing and there are five ways that can help boost this. Each of these actions makes a positive difference to how we feel, being aware of and combining these will make a difference
- Connect – with your friends, family, neighbours and people at work. Have a conversation, pass the time of day, make time for that chat
- Be Active – find a physical activity that you enjoy, go for a walk, try gardening
- Take Notice – take the time to look at the day, the changing seasons. Savour the moment
- Keep Learning – try something new whether it’s making a new recipe, fixing the bike or even signing up for a course
- Give – smile, do something nice for a friend or neighbour, make some time for others
