Wellbeing Week initiative introduced
We believe that the health and wellbeing of our students is fundamental to their overall development and success. With this in mind, we were delighted to introduce an exciting new addition to the Senior School calendar: Wellbeing Week. This significant initiative, running across the first week in July, was designed to provide our senior students with a variety of activities aimed at enhancing their social, emotional, physical and practical wellbeing.
Wellbeing Week featured a carefully curated selection of sessions to support and nurture every aspect of student life. Highlights included:
- Financial Wellbeing session to help equip our young people with essential skills for managing their future finances
- Outdoor exploration and discovery activities at RHS Bridgewater and other local places of interest
- Annual 5K run in aid of St. Ann’s Hospice
- Providing a creative outlet through practical crafting and origami
- Fostering a love of reading and allowing students to immerse themselves in literature with our school-wide Readathon
- Introducing Neurographical Art – a meditative art form that blends creativity with stress relief
- Yoga sessions to help students relax, focus and maintain physical and mental balance
- Participation in our annual Sports Day and Awards Assembly yo celebrate collective and individual achievements
- Annual Rewards Day Trip to Blackpool Pleasure Beach.
To ensure that our initiatives continue to meet the needs of our students, we have issued a wellbeing survey to all pupils. Their feedback will be invaluable in shaping future events and activities, allowing us to further support their growth and development.
We are hopeful that many of these activities will become regular features on our school timetable, ensuring that Bridgewater School remains a place where every student can flourish and thrive.
