Pupil Voice

100% of children asked strongly agreed with the following statements-

  • I enjoy nurture sessions.
  • There is someone at school I can trust.
  • Do you think nurture group has helped you to regulate your emotions.

 

"Nurture group is a great place. It helps me control my anger and emotions. I use the techniques."  Amelia 

"I really enjoy nurture group and it helps me to calm down when I get upset or cross." Eesa

"I think the walk and talks have helped me and when I do them they make me relaxed and calm." Phoebe

 

Parent Voice

“Mrs Walker and Mrs Merrick have both supported my daughter throughout a challenging term. She struggles with Anxiety and the classes are helping her think about how she reacts in certain situations. I am seeing change (for the better) in my daughter due to these classes and hope that this will only continue to improve with the caring, and support that both have shown both her and myself.” (Spring 2024)

“I think that the pastoral team are excellent and are always on hand to support both child and parent.”  (Spring 2024)

"Mrs Walker has a great relationship with my child and knows how to communicate to her when she is struggling". (Spring 2024)

"Mrs Walker is absolutely amazing, she has been fab with every issue I have taken to her… a huge thank you to her in particular". (Spring 2024)

"Mrs Walker, Mrs Merrick and Mrs Lyles have been amazing and supportive throughout the nurture program. They have gone above and beyond to ensure my child feels safe and supported at school." (Spring 2024)

"My child absolutely loves having Mrs Walker to listen to her worries and needs. She has been through some really tough life events in her time at norristhorpe and there is no doubt in my mind that road would have been a lot more bumpy without the pastoral support Mrs Walker and Mrs Merrick have been able to offer her. It's amazing for me to have a team of professionals in their field who I can lean to when I feel like she needs that bit of extra support." (Spring 2024)

Our Nurture Pets

Two new members of the pastoral team are joining us. Mrs Walker will be bringing them to school most days.
Having animals to care for can encourage empathy, care, responsibility, resilience, love, commitment, confidence and for many children it will be their only contact with a pet as they don’t have them at home.
We are very much looking forward working alongside our newest recruits!

Walk with Norris

We are excited to launch our new wellbeing and community event, Walk With Norris that we have created in conjunction with Romantica beds.
