 FORTHCOMING EVENTS

day of reflection – 23RD MARCH 2021

A “national day of reflection” will be held to mark the first anniversary of Britain going into lockdown and in remembrance of the 125,000 people who have died during the coronavirus pandemic.

Charities and politicians are urging members of the public to hold a minute’s silence at noon and to contact someone they know who is grieving to offer support. Our school community will be honouring this by holding our own 2 minute silence at 12pm. 

Members of the community have already made wonderful gestures of commemoration to those we have lost; a beautiful heart of stones can now be seen on the Bwlch mountain. We are planning to display as much yellow as possible around our school site on this day, and our pupils and staff are invited to wear a yellow item.

We know how difficult it is for children, young people, parents, carers and teachers at the moment.  Barnardo’s Education Community provides access to FREE online trauma informed resources with a focus on loss, grief and bereavement to support the children and young people across your settings. There is also a section on staff wellbeing with lots of useful tips and advice to help us all get through this.
