The Cost of Living Crisis
As I hope you all know, our school is here not only to look after our children but also our families. It is a very trying and financially testing time for many of our families at the moment and the next few months could see many hitting crisis point. My message to you is that you are not alone and we are here to help wherever possible. Working with the Early Help team in Salford, we can also refer families in to a number of agencies, not least local food banks. There is support if you are facing housing and financial related difficulties. We also collect uniform at school and if you need any at all, please just ask at the office, it is waiting to be used. Please get in touch with me at school if you feel you could benefit from any help at all. We know that this could also impact on our children and we have Sania fromPlace2Be available every Thursday and Friday. If you are ever worried about your child's mental health or well-being, please get in touch so that we can set something up. If it is your own mental health and well-being that is suffering, do not suffer alone. We are here to listen and help at school and we have completed lots of referrals for men and women over the last few months. Please reach out to me at school if I can help or direct you to support in any way. This will be completely confidential and I will be delighted to help you. We are all one family at St. Charles and we are here for both you and your children at any time at all.
Online Safety
Safe settings, controls and monitoring
Apple, Android and Microsoft have tools to help you control what younger children can use and how long for. Click the images below for details. Once they are older and have your trust, the same tools can help avoid arguments and help them learn to self-regulate (how long have they really been on insta today? have they put down the phone at all in the last week?).
