Wellbeing at Marlborough
From Melissa Moore
Welcome to our new page!
Each newsletter I will post some information/articles that may help support your families Wellbeing. I hope you will find this helpful.
Body Image
Do your kids struggle with body image? Do they say things about how they look or what their friends look like? Are you unsure how to navigate this topic with them? Attached below in this Newsletter is an article with some practical tips about what you might do as parents and carers to help your child/ren navigate their changing bodies and concerns with how they look. Remember the most important thing we can do to guide our young people is take time to listen and spend time whenever possible being present with them, some physical activity together, however possible is beneficial for both their mindset and yours too.
Praise them when they do something well and talk openly and honestly about when things don’t go so well, remember focus on the incident/behaviour, stick to factual information.
I hope you had a great school holidays, remember please don’t hesitate to drop in and say hello or chat through anything with me at anytime. I am available to see you and your children. Let Nat at the office know if you would like to book a time.
Attached is a Consent Form that will need to be completed and returned if you would like me to spend any 1:1 time with your child/children.
Please pop in and say Hi anytime. I am available Mondays and Tuesdays (8:00 – 4:00) and Wednesday (9:30 – 2:30)
