As part of the ethos of our Primary School, we have a Wellbeing Team to support the children and families of South Avenue. This team will focus on ensuring the child’s holistic needs are met. The team will work closely with parents and families to achieve this.

The Wellbeing Team meet regularly to review and plan interventions. We are proud to have two fully qualified staff supporting our children:

· Mrs Williams is ELSA trained and also delivers Multi Family Group support.

· Miss L Major is a qualified Thrive Practitioner and Healing Together Facilitator.

The support given by our staff enables the children to develop emotional resilience and promote positive mental health.

In addition, we liaise with external agencies where they may be better placed to support the children.

If you, as a parent, have any concerns please bring these to the attention of the Class Teacher who will pass this on to a member of the Wellbeing Team.
