Mental Health & Well-Being
At St Michael’s Primary School and Nursery we are committed to supporting the emotional health and wellbeing of our pupils, families and staff. We know that everyone experiences life challenges that can make us vulnerable at times, anyone may need additional emotional support. We take the view that positive mental health is everybody’s business and that we all have a role to play.
At our school we:
- help children to understand their emotions and feelings better
- help children feel comfortable sharing any concerns or worries
- help children socially to form and maintain relationships
- promote self esteem and ensure children know that they count
- encourage children to be confident and their best, unique self
- help children to develop emotional resilience and to manage setbacks
If you feel your child needs extra well-being or mental health support, or would like advice please contact Mrs Howlett either through Class Dojo, email j.howlett@stmichaelsprimary.co.uk or ring the school directly on 01206 546412, alternatively you can contact our Family Support Officer, Vicki Davies at v.davies@stmichaelsprimary.co.uk.
There are times when we all feel the strain. As parents and carers, there are ways we can support children and young people to give them the best chance to stay mentally healthy. Please watch the video below that explains how we all have mental health.
