The Centre is an amazing addition to our school and every member of our community will be spending time there, either getting support from staff, accessing services and the fantastic spaces or participating in lots of cocurricular activities.

The Wellbeing Centre is situated at the front of the School, next to the canopy on the front lawns. The building has been fully redeveloped and houses people and spaces to support all members of the School community, from students and their families to staff and the wider community.

There is an Oasis Room and Garden for those who would feel the benefit from ‘time out’ in a quiet space during the busy school day to chat or read.

The new Spirituality Space, which looks out on the wonderful Wellbeing Centre Garden, will be a venue for prayer and quiet reflection for all students and staff.

The School Nurse and Learning Support Coordinator have new, dedicated spaces to support with first aid and any learning needs a student may have.

We also have a Mental Health Lead, who will work with students and families, to ensure they have everything they need to cope with any mental wellbeing challenges that they may face.

Upstairs in the Centre, the School Counselling service will continue to support students with a wide variety of issues, from friendship concerns to helping develop resilience strategies.

We will offer physiotherapy sessions during the school day.

A new Physical Wellbeing Lead will also be appointed soon to work with individuals and groups of students on all aspects of their physical wellbeing, from supporting those participating in elite sport to educating the School community on fitness for life opportunities.

Many cocurricular activities will be held in the Wellbeing Centre. Some of these will happen in the light, bright Flexible Space upstairs. Activities will include walking clubs, Wellbeing Warrior sessions such as Yoga and Pilates, self-care and emotional intelligence workshops, life-coaching and meditation groups. Chill and chat will happen every day in the Oasis Room, alongside morning prayers and reflection in the Spirituality Space. Cheerleading, dance and running clubs will be available weekly, alongside stress management class and Friday movie nights after school. There will be activities for parents too, including a ‘parent unwind’ class, language classes and parent fitness after school, whilst children are looked after in our wrap-around care.
