Nutrition talk for Parents and Carers and Mindfulness for Staff, St Mary's Primary School, Lewisham

“As Headteacher of St Mary’s CofE Primary school, supporting staff wellbeing is a key priority.  The Introduction to Mindfulness session led by Sian Martin an experienced mindfulness practitioner, was both a transformative and valuable experience for our team.  Staff responded very positively, finding it both relevant and practical for their busy school day.  The session offered simple, manageable strategies that staff can use ‘little and often’, which made it feel realistic and accessible. 

The opportunity to pause and reflect was particularly appreciated, helping staff become more aware of how busy their minds can be.

It was encouraging to see such strong engagement and interest in developing this further.   Overall, the session provided meaningful support for staff wellbeing and is something I would recommend to other schools.

Feedback from Parents and Carers attending the Healthy eating nutrition talk was really positive including changes they would be making to improve their diets and some clever shopping tips to save time and money"
