We are pleased to announce an addition to our school programme. We will be running weekly support groups or one to one sessions for our children who have experienced any painful loss.
When something significant happens in a family, the entire family is affected. Even though death, divorce or other loss issues appear to be only grown-up problems, they have a profound effect on the children who are touched by such experiences. A painful loss can occur and not only do the parents grieve, the children do also. Children may find it extremely difficult to verbalise their feelings of grief because of their age and inexperience. Our Rainbows sessions give children the time they need to explore how they are feeling through a range of supportive activities. This is over 12 weeks.
If you feel there is a need for this support, please email or speak to Miss Davis:
