Wellbeing and Support
Supporting Mental Health and Well Being
At St Catherine's our positive and nurturing ethos and the relationships that we develop with our children help to support their well being. We take a 'Trauma Informed' approach to working with children and families and we also work with the Mental Health in Schools team's Wellbeing and Emotional Support Worker to provide support for individuals and groups, and to inform our whole school approach to wellbeing and positive mental health.
There are many ways in which to support your own and your children's mental health and well being and making things part of our everyday routines can make a huge difference. The NHS every mind matters website has some great ideas. Minded for Families also has great resources for parents and carers to support their children.
There is a lot more information on our Supporting children and families pages.
If you feel that you or your child might need support, why not come and chat to Jane Milligan, our family support worker or to a member of staff.
