The ‘Bounce Back to School’ programme for schools and families was designed in response to what surely was going to be a very difficult return to school following lockdown.

It was written with the aim of pulling together the key themes of managing anxiety and uncertainty, thinking about love and loss, friendship skills and nature under the umbrella of creating a secure base for all and resilience. We felt that our children gained a great deal from the programme, so we decided to include it each year as part of our PSHE lessons. Our children now enjoy the 'Bounce Back to School lessons' after returning to school, and into their new class, after the Summer holiday.

‘Bounce Back to School’ is a six-week programme where children, staff and family activities run in parallel with each other. We hope you enjoy doing some of the home activities with your child.
