We have some brilliant services that work closely to support families regarding their child’s mental health. Here are some dates for short webinars across the rest of the school year to give a little insight around what the Healthy Minds team can offer. The first being an Introduction to the service.
If you have any further questions, please ask.
See the timetable below for the activities ran by the Family Hubs over the October half-term. There are lots of lovely Halloween related events however most are bookable so don’t leave it too late incase they fill up!
If your family have had experience within Children’s Services, there is an event to get your views and personal experiences across. This can be to talk about the positives and negatives during their involvement. Senior Managers from the service will be present to hear your thoughts and answer any questions.

Time:10am-1pm (Lunch and refreshments will be provided)
7 Blue attended a Primary school 10 Pin Bowling tournament organised by South Tyneside School Sport Network. We were one of seventeen teams from across South Tyneside.
The children represented the school excellently, eventually finishing in second place, with plenty of strikes and spares! The whole team were thrilled with their silver medals. Well done everyone!
