Dear Parents and Carers,
We are pleased to invite you to a series of Parent Wellbeing and Community events. Informal sessions are an opportunity to connect with other parents, meet members of staff, share experiences and access practical support.
Although informal, we do ask that you book using the links provided so that we have an idea of numbers attending.
Wednesday 18th November, 8:45am-9:45am: Cuppa and Connect Launch
Join us for an informal drop-in after school drop-off. Enjoy a cup of tea or coffee and meet other parents, as well as our Mental Health Lead (Mr Antonious) and Well-being Lead (Mrs Chavasse). This is a relaxed space to chat about the joys and challenges of parenting. Topics might include:
• Sleep
• Anxiety
• Food-related concerns
• Emotional regulation
• Accessing support services and signposting
Thursday 26th November, 8:45am-9:45am: Stay and Play #1
Parents of younger siblings are invited to bring them to play in our Practical Studio. This is a wonderful opportunity for younger children to experience the school environment, while parents connect, share experiences and discuss any issues or concerns with staff in an informal setting.
Wednesday 2nd December, 8:35am-9:45am: Parent Mental Health MOT
Parenting is rewarding but is also very demanding. This practical workshop will focus on supporting your Well-being so that you feel able to support those around you. Together we will explore:
• Looking after yourself whilst parenting
• Simple, practical Well-being strategies
• Creating a personal Well-being action plan
• Resources and Well-being Chat videos for ongoing support
We look forward to welcoming you to these sessions and strengthening the supportive partnership we want to create between home and school. Whether you come for a chat over coffee or take part in a workshop, we hope you will find the sessions helpful, informative and enjoyable.
We look forward to seeing you there.
The Warden Hill Wellbeing Team
