FAMILY SUPPORT WORKER - 2pm coffee afternoon TODAY14 March 2022 (by admin) |
Every little helps! Maria Chiriches is in today - here to assist, support and guide. She is our school FAMILY SUPPORT WORKER. She will work closely with families and make a difference. Please see her information below and WORK contact details.
As part of our ongoing partnership with parents, our FAMILY SUPPORT WORKER's role will include assisting with:
*Family relationships, health and well-being, financial hardship, bereavement, housing matters or a referral to specialist services
*Behaviour at home or school
*Transitions in school or moving up to secondary school
*Attendance or lateness
*Individual work with young people on self-esteem, confidence, parental separation, anger management, friendships, social networks, bereavement and problem solving
*Signposting to relevant services about career advice, job searching, adult education, disabilities, care and support and money management
It's a difficult time for many households, and what goes on behind closed doors 24/7 can be extremely challenging...sometimes people and families needs help, guidance, support and a listening ear.
School staff work very hard assisting families but the FAMILY SUPPORT WORKER is a bridge, a go-between, a specific person who can really focus on family needs, your specific needs. Sometimes adults prefer to talk to FAMILY SUPPORT instead of teaching staff, Mr. Foley or Mr. Stephenson. Having someone there makes a DIFFERENCE!
Our FAMILY SUPPORT WORKER is having a welcoming TEA & COFFEE opportunity - Monday 14th March at 2pm in the school hall - come along for a chat if you want to introduce yourself.
