Wellbeing
Keeping well to do well at BPSP
Positive wellbeing and mental health have always been of utmost importance to all of us at Baden-Powell and St. Peter's CE Junior School and events of the last few years and their aftermath have made this an even greater priority both in our school and nationwide. 'Keeping well', both physically and mentally, will mean children are far more likely 'to do well' in each aspect of their lives.
In this section of our website, we are excited to show you the range of ways in which we are promoting positive wellbeing and mental health for all at BPSP; to share activities and advice that you could use at home to maintain or boost your child's wellbeing; and, to signpost you to organisations and charities which are specifically trained in various aspects of wellbeing and mental health.
As helpful and supportive as this may be, please remember how important it is to contact your child's class teacher (in the first instance) if you are at all concerned regarding your child's wellbeing or mental health.
Supporting your child to keep well and do well.
Keep checking this area of our website for wellbeing-related articles and reports. These will either offer you updates of what is going on in school or will provide information about aspects of wellbeing which may be useful to support your child. Also keep an eye out in Headlines for our new wellbeing section.
Mental Health Awareness Week 2024. We made Posters to show different and interesting ways in which we enjoy moving.
Stormbreak
Stormbreak , a programme which we deliver here at Baden-Powell and St. Peter's Junior School to promote positive wellbeing and mental health, comprises one very important cog in our BPSP wellbeing wheel. Its aim is to improve children's mental health through movement and to equip them with coping strategies with which to tackle the stresses and strains that life presents.
Children regularly participate in a minimum of 2 sessions each week and they have been very vocal in expressing how beneficial they have found them.
Please visit the website for further details about the organisation (www.stormbreak.org.uk) and encourage your child to look at the Wellbeing section under the CHILDREN tab of the website where we have uploaded some Stormbreak videos for them.
