Information about Balerno High School Wellbeing Hub:
The Wellbeing Hub supports young people by providing a safe space within school, access to trusted adults, and a space to learn life skills and regulation emotions. The Hub also works to raise attendance, wellbeing and attainment for vulnerable and disadvantaged pupils.
Information about the project:
The Wellbeing Hub was planning to reinstate a Breakfast Club, addressing food inequalities, by making a small breakfast available to participants each morning. The Hub requested funding to purchase a dinner set and some games.
Feedback:
A new dining set was purchased, along with some glasses, for the students. The Hub also purchased a selection of new games and some puzzles. They reported that the students had absolutely loved the games, the Pokémon puzzle proving a particular hit! In addition, some new colouring pencils were purchased to use for wellbeing colouring and downtime in the Hub. All VERY well used by the students!
