The Peake Post - Moods and Attitudes
The Peake Post - Moods and Attitudes
Dear Parents and Carers,
It has been wonderful to see the children return with such enthusiasm and positivity, setting the tone for a fantastic year ahead. In assemblies this term, we are focusing on moods and attitudes, helping our students understand how self-regulation can put them in the best mindset for learning. We believe that by exploring these themes, we can support each child in developing the skills they need to succeed, not only in their studies but in all areas of life.
Have a look at the photos taken of the displays in the assembly hall and ask your child to tell you about them.
The Young Minds (https://youngminds.org.uk) website provides excellent resources for understanding children's mental health, including managing emotions and attitudes to support learning and well-being.
We're delighted to see the children making a strong start to the year, and we are already witnessing some great progress in their learning. Thank you to all our parents and guardians for your continued support and for working with us to ensure the best outcomes for your children. Together, we can achieve great things!
Looking forward to a fantastic year ahead.

Well Being - Managing conflict
Well Being - Managing conflict
The National Online Safety #WakeupWednesday is included on our X ( aka Twitter ) @HerbMorrPriSch.
As children go through life, they will inevitably come into conflict sooner or later. These disagreements can range from seemingly minor squabbles to far more serious disputes, and dealing with them in an effective, mature manner is an absolutely vital skill – one that takes some time and effort to cultivate.
In children and young people’s formative years, it’s incredibly important for parents and educators to know how to teach them conflict resolution, as well being able to model this skill effectively. This free guide offers expert advice on helping youngsters avoid unnecessary conflict and supporting them in finding solutions when clashes arise.
