Nurturing November Wellbeing Club Planning
This is our Nurturing November Wellbeing club planning.
Many of you are running wellbeing groups at lunchtimes and after school. You will find lots of resources to help you do this from our free resource section.
Of course you could also use this planning as part of your ELSA role too. They could even be used whole class if needed. Give the link to your teachers!!!
Each month I will release a month’s worth of planning with links to resources that you can use. The planning will be released before the beginning of each month to give you chance to gather the resources.
Objective for sessions: To find ways of being more caring
Our focus this month is on nurturing
Nurturing and caring are essential for building strong, positive relationships, whether with friends, family, or within the wider community. When we show care for others, we create a sense of trust and belonging, helping those around us feel valued and supported. Nurturing behaviour also helps us to better understand the needs and feelings of others, which strengthens empathy and kindness. On a personal level, being nurturing can improve emotional well-being, reduce stress, and boost happiness, as it promotes a sense of connection and purpose. In schools, fostering a nurturing environment encourages pupils to feel safe, which helps them to thrive socially and emotionally.
Here’s what the Nurturing November session looks like:
- Welcome and Feelings Check-in: Start by asking pupils how they’re feeling, and they can pinpoint their emotions using the chart you’ll print out.
- Main Activity: These are all hands-on. Activities such as crafting, drawing, movement or colouring. Plus, there’ll be minimal writing involved.
- Relaxation: Wrap up with a calming activity to ease pupils back into their routine. It’s the perfect way to transition back to class smoothly.
Nurturing November is part of our wellbeing year calendar resources.
We also have a leaflet for Nurturing November
