East Ayrshire School Counselling Service Newsletter

The August 2021 School Counselling newsletter is now live to view on sway: https://sway.office.com/P1Hor4Wlf76ZQx7K?ref=Link
It contains photos and information about all of the counsellors and resilience coaches, advice and coping strategies from them for young people, a short video on low mood and information about other relevant supports, resources and professional learning.

Warm Weather

We hope that you enjoyed the weather over the Bank Holiday weekend.  With the sunshine and warm temperatures forecast to remain with us for a few days, we would like to ask that your child/children have sunscreen applied before they attend school or nursery, and/or bring a sun hat with them for additional protection while outside.  They are welcome to bring sunscreen to school to top up as necessary, but they will need to be able to do this independently.  As always, we encourage children to bring a water bottle to school with them, which they will be able to refill as required.

Children will be enjoying the outdoor environment more frequently as the weather improves, with their teachers using spaces around the school to enhance learning experiences.

 

Sponsored Skip

Yesterday all of our pupils took part in a sponsored skip to help raise funds for the P7 Micro-Tyco project. The day was a huge success and the kind donations of our parents/carers has allowed us to raise a great sum of money that will be put towards buying games and activities for the playgrounds, as well as new resources to support our curriculum. Next week P7 will share their Micro-Tyco total. We have added some pictures below, but more have been added to the P7 Class Blog (follow the link). Thanks again for your continued support.

Understand autism, the person and what to do.

I’m not naughty. I’m autistic.
For autistic people like me, the world can be a terrifying place. Sometimes sounds feel like my head is exploding. Clothes feel like my skin is burning. And when a tiny thing changes, it feels like my world is ending.
Sometimes I get too much information. And if you only see a naughty kid, you haven’t got enough. #AutismTMI
