Wellbeing
We are always happy to listen to you and to discuss any worries you may have about your child's well-being.
At school, we teach children about well-being through our curriculum (PSHE, PE, RE, ICT & Science), through assemblies, after-school activities and special visitors.
The Thrive Approach
We have been using the Thrive Approach at South Green since 2016 to support children develop self confidence, improved self esteem and resilience.
The Thrive Approach draws on insights from these fields to provide a powerful way of working with children and young people that supports optimal social and emotional development. In particular, the Approach equips staff to work in a targeted way with children and young people who have struggled with difficult life events to help them re-engage with life and learning.
Please contact Mrs Servantes or Mrs Benjeddi for more information.
Counselling
For children who need a little more support with their mental health, we are able o provide access to a counsellor on site every Thursday morning. Our counsellor is called Sue Prichard (Working 4 Children), who has worked with the school for many years, supporting many children to overcome emotional difficulties and worries.
If your child shows serious emotional and mental health difficulties, we can support you in making a referral to 'EWMHS' (the Emotional Wellbeing and Mental Health Service) and offer support to you in approaching your GP to request additional help for your child.
