See our Facebook 🡒The trial focused on the issue of fly tipping, with Haselbury and Merriott pupils taking on the roles of the defendant and their legal team. This provided the children with a valuable, real-life insight into how the justice system works and allowed them to develop their speaking, listening and reasoning skills in a practical context.
We are incredibly proud of all the children who took part. They approached the experience with enthusiasm and confidence, and performed their roles brilliantly throughout the trial. Their efforts, teamwork and engagement were a credit to the school. 6 Likes
Therefore, we are delighted to be hosting an EBSA Wise-Up Workshop for parents and carers in the lead up to their celebration.
What is EBSA?
EBSA stands for Emotionally Based School Avoidance. It describes situations where a child or young person finds attending school difficult due to emotional factors such as anxiety, worries, low confidence, sensory needs, social pressures, or other challenges.
This informal workshop will help parents and carers:
⭐ Understand what EBSA is and how it can present
⭐ Explore some of the reasons children may struggle with school attendance
⭐ Learn practical strategies to support children at home
⭐ Discover sources of advice, guidance and support
⭐ Connect with other parents in a welcoming, non-judgemental environment
And because every celebration needs good food… we’ll be providing FREE bacon rolls and croissants 🥐 🥓
Please note that toys and activities will still be available for children, although these will be based in our smaller room during the session.
To help us with catering numbers, please send us a message or leave a comment if you plan to attend.
We’d love to see you there! 💚
