Wellbeing support during the school holidays

During the school term, all classrooms engage in Social and Emotional Learning activities to equip students with the skills to boost their wellbeing and seek help when they need it. Every child is invited to consider five people in their lives (school and home) that they can talk to if they need help. Ask your child about who they chose and why.

You can support wellbeing by encouraging your child to:

Exercise and eat healthily to boost their mood
Prioritise sleep to support mental and emotional wellbeing
Explore relaxation techniques and coping strategies
Stay in touch and catch up with friends and loved ones
Make time to do things they enjoy
Practise positive self-talk, and remind them they are not alone

Seek professional help if needed (visit the below websites for advice).

Signs a child may need extra support from a professional:
Loss of interest or involvement in activities normally enjoyed
Feeling ‘low’, unusually stressed or worried
Ordinary things get harder
Easily irritated or angry
Taking more dangerous risks, like using alcohol or drugs
Withdrawal or feeling overwhelmed
Difficulties with concentration and motivation
Having a lot of negative thoughts
Changing in sleeping and eating

Child safety and wellbeing at Springvale Rise Primary School: information for families and the school community
