Offley prides itself on a curriculum building positive emotions and helping them realise that making mistakes is part of learning. We educate about being resilient and how their well-being is very important to all of us. Our Healthy Body / Healthy Mind week further promotes these issues and we look forward to sharing with you some photos of the activities we have been involved with.
Following Covid, it is even more important to think about our children's mental health and well-being. There are some web site links below that promote the health and well-being of our children. Please take some time to have a look through them. I'm happy to receive information about any successes that you have had.
There is a service offered by the NHS Community Trust called 'Children's Wellbeing Practitioners Service' offering interventions, workshops and advice. Please follow the link below for further information.

Reading Well supports you to understand and manage your health and wellbeing using helpful reading.
The books are all endorsed by health experts, as well as people with living with the conditions covered and their relatives and carers.
You can be recommended a title by a health professional, or you can visit your local library and take a book out yourself.
There are currently four book lists available: Reading Well for mental health, Reading Well for dementia, Reading Well for young people and Reading Well for long term conditions.
Reading Well was recognized by the Royal Society for Public Health as a finalist for the 2017 Public Mental Health and Wellbeing Award.
