The Dandelion Seeds Club
Welcome to the Dandelion Seeds!
Our Dandelion Seeds Club has been set up to support our service children and their families within our school. We meet on a Friday afternoons. We aim to:-
Help settle new children and make the transition into their new class as easy as possible.
To meet other service children within the school in an informal and fun setting.
Support the children, when Mum or Dad might go away, by letter writing, drawing pictures, having a chat with other children who are or have experienced the same feelings.
To be there as a friendly ear for any situation. Mrs Allen has a number of resources that may help you and your child at home during difficult times. Please just come in and ask or drop Mrs Allen an e mail. We also have a copy of the book, "My Daddy's Going Away" (see the link below), if you would like to view it.
The Dandelion Seeds is run by Mrs Allen an experienced member of our Teaching Assistant Team.
We also offer pastoral support for both parents and children as and when needed.
