Welcome back

Hi everyone, welcome back to a new school year and a particular welcome to our new Year 8’s. If you are new to the school and don’t know about the school counsellor here are a few points to note.

• Please log on to the school counselling website if you would like to find out more, look at the flier in your pupil planner or call in to my room for a chat.

• I hope to take to all year 8 pupils in assembly on 15th September.

• Please come along and feel you can share your problem, no matter how small, there are lots of support services in the Model.

Counselling is a process which helps you look at your concerns and explore problems.

It may help you...

• Make choices • Cope with crisis • Improve friendships and relationships • Understand yourself better • Develop ways to cope with change

If you don’t want to talk to anyone in school remember there is always
LIFELINE helpline number 0808 808 8000
(24 hours a day, 7 days a week, calls are free from landlines and mobiles)

I look forward to meeting some new faces and returning pupils are always welcome!

Janet
