Good evening all! With midterm on the way, hopefully the weather will improve and the days are a bit brighter on the other side of the break. The students have settled well into their mock exams and and are getting on with it. The mocks give students the focus required at this time of year, and that will serve them well further down the line. Of course they need that steady care and attention that you parents are expert at dispensing especially during this testing time.
Another call out to parents for any school uniforms that are not being used at home. Jackets, skirts jumpers and trousers would all be gratefully received here.
Mr Ozalp will be doing his workshop on AI (Artificial Intelligence) for parents/guardians and grandparents tomorrow morning in the school library at 11am. Come along to learn about a hot topic and pick up some practical tips. Text me at 0861857703 if you would like to participate.
Young People, Eating Disorders- Support for Parents and Carers
The ISPCC are offering a FREE webinar in collaboration with Bodywhys to parents/ carers. The webinar is titled ‘Young People, Eating Disorders & Disordered Eating – Support for Parents/ Carers’ and takes place on Thursday the 19th of February at 7pm. On the evening Kathy Downes, Support Services and Training Manager, with Bodywhys will give an overview of what an eating disorder is, and where it sits at the spectrum of potential disordered behaviours and thoughts in young people around food and body. Kathy will look at how a person with an eating disorder experience themselves and the world, and how we then must think about how to communicate with that person to be able to support them.
