Dear Students/ Parents/ Guardians,
During this difficult time we may find ourselves more stressed and overwhelmed, which is completely normal. It is now more important than ever to look after ourselves and our mental health.
Please find attached below an excellent booklet than helps to explore our feelings and thoughts in a supportive manner. I hope you will find the next school semester more manageable than the last one. Remember, be kind to yourself and others. The booklet covers the following topics,
Topics:
Planning Your Information Diet

Further Resources
Note, if problems are too overwhelming or seem to be persisting contact your GP for further support/ appropriate referrals.
Kind regards,
Mr. Mc Nicholas.
