Spring Holiday Programme: April 2019

In partnership with the Education Department, ERCL will be offering a range of spring holiday activities for all children across East Renfrewshire. All children get the opportunity to participate in a number of sports and fun activities throughout their holidays. However, our priority remains the Holiday Hunger programmes at Barrhead High and Eastwood High Schools and a substantial amount of funding goes into this vital offering to provide a meal and activities free of charge to qualifying families.

If you are in receipt of council tax or housing benefits you may be able to get a FREE place on the holiday programme. The children will have a great experience and it is something fun and active for them to participate in over the holidays.

Seasons for Growth

 

Change and loss are issues that affect all of us at some stage in our lives. At Carlibar we recognise that when changes occur in families through death, separation, divorce and related circumstances, young people may benefit from learning how to manage these changes effectively.

We are therefore offering a very successful education program called Seasons for Growth. This program is facilitated in small groups and is based on research which highlights the importance of social support and the need the practise new skills to cope effectively with change and loss.

The program focuses on issues such as self-esteem, managing feelings, problem-solving, decision-making, effective communication and support networks. 

We will also be holding an information session on Monday 8th October from 11:00-12:00 to allow any parents and carers who want to find out more a chance to look at some of the resources which will be used and meet Mrs MacLean who will be running the weekly group for pupils.
