Parent Relax Kids Workshop- 5 free sessions to support wellbeing

8 March 2022 (by Vicky Hopkins (vhopkins))

Following excellent feedback from the parents who attended the taster session a few weeks ago, we are delighted to be able to offer 5 sessions from Kath at Relax Kids Basingstoke which will be centred around supporting the wellbeing of our parents and carers, providing you with strategies and techniques that you can also use at home with your children to support their wellbeing.   Each session will take in some gentle movement/stretching, mindfulness exercises, breathing exercises and relaxation, all of which can be adapted to use with your children.
The school will be funding the sessions for our families as part of our work in supporting positive mental health in our school community. 
These sessions will run from Monday 14th March for 5 weeks (excluding half term), from 12.15pm until 12.55pm. They will be held over Zoom, and codes will be sent for the session when you sign up using the attached link.  

Feedback from the taster session included:

‘I enjoyed the session very much. It was relaxing and I learnt ways to cope with stress’.

'The session was very soothing and relaxing, a fab lunch break, really!’  

We hope you can come along and benefit from these sessions, and feel free to keep your camera off if you would prefer. Please sign up using the link below by Friday 11th March so that we can send you the information needed for the first session. If you have any trouble signing up, please let us know by contacting the school office and we can help you in doing so. 
Kath will also be including tips from Tuesday to the weekend including a Tuesday mindfulness tip, wellbeing Wednesday, positive poem for Thursday, mindful colouring for Friday and a journal prompt/thought for the weekend.  This will be emailed to you each Monday along with the link to the relaxation session.
Please book using this link https://eventsframe.com/e/oB8afQnkY/fairfields-primary-school-5-weeks-of-relaxation-sessions-for-parents-carers/
We hope you can join us there.
