Online Support for Self-Harm

Leave a comment

There is now an online service from Penumbra- https://selfharmnetworkscotland.org.uk which can support any young person aged 12 or over.  For Primary school pupils, parents and carers can also seek advice here.

Self-harm is any non-accidental behaviour which causes, or has the potential to cause, harm to a person. Self-harm is where someone hurts themselves as a way of coping with difficult, distressing or overwhelming feelings or experiences. While we know that self-harm and suicide are linked, we also know that self-harm is often used as a way of surviving distressing experiences and to stay alive.

Calling all new S1’s that transitioned from New Cumnock Primary School!

As promised, Mrs McNulty will be hosting a ‘Tea @ 3’ session to check-in with our most recent cohort of S1’s and to hear about how you have settled into life as S1s at RBA!

OUR FIRST SESSION WILL BE THIS FRIDAY 30TH AUGUST 2024 @ 3PM,  PLEASE ENTER VIA COMMUNITY ENTRANCE!

This is an opportunity for new S1 pupils to check in with primary staff they trust, whilst they are still building relationships with staff at the Robert Burns Academy, and have a chat about their new school, subjects, friends, or any  worries they have.

This is not compulsory for pupils, but we would love to see you!
