Helping your child cope with their emotions at home
At St. Fergus’ Primary, we adopt a whole school approach to emotions awareness and regulation called Emotion Works. Your child/children have had lots of input on this and should be aware of each cog and what it means.
Emotion Works helps your child to understand why they feel particular emotions and be able to relate these emotions to a trigger (cause) and find a way to calm down and self-regulate. Expectedly, with the current ongoing situation, everyone will be feeling a range of emotions on a daily basis. We hope this flier will be useful to you in helping to keep your child/children calm in what is an uncertain and strange time for us all. It will also promote positive continuity and a recognisable vocabulary since this is what we promote in St. Fergus’.

Parent Information Leaflet- Emotion Works
The pupil Council had a meeting this morning to review what we have already done and what we want to do this year. We are looking at the How Good is Our School document and want to hear from each class on what they think about the relationships in our school. We are going to look at the teaching and learning in our school and have a chat with each class about how our school promotes good learning and how we give good quality feedback. We are also looking at updating our school house reward system to link in with our current behaviour policy.
The pupil Council are beginning to organise some fundraising events for this year with the first charity we are fundraising for being MISSIO.
On Tuesday at Parent’s Night, our Head and Depute boys and girls will be asking you for your views on or Family Learning Events. Please take time to complete the online evaluation with them. We are always trying to gather your views to help us plan for future events. Please see below for the QR Code and Web link.
Thank you to everyone who made our Family learning events possible. We have worked and learned together about Literacy, Numeracy, Health and Well being including mindfulness and emotions.
We will be evaluating these events in the coming weeks to plan for more after Christmas. Please make sure you take part!
Last session we asked parent’s what we could do to improve parental engagement in children’s learning. Many of our parents asked for information sessions in the evening.
Please come along to our first Family learning event on Tuesday 27th August at 6:30pm.
We look forward to seeing you all there!!
Today we had a lovely visit from Bishop John. He helped us to prepare for our Confirmation, and gave us more information about some very special Saints.
A few of the children were lucky enough to take part in short role plays to help us understand Bishop John’s role during our Confirmation.
