Wellbeing
Welcome to the Wellbeing section of our school's website. At Salmestone Primary School, we recognise the importance of underpinning academic growth by nurturing the holistic well-being of our students.
This section provides resources, support, and guidance to help our students and their families, and to promote positive mental health practices among our school community.
Navigating the challenges of growing up can sometimes be overwhelming. We are committed to fostering a supportive environment where students feel empowered to prioritise their wellbeing and seek assistance when needed. It is very important that if you have any worries or concerns about your safety, mental health or wellbeing you talk to a member of staff. This can be your tutor, a teacher or a member of the pastoral team.
In collaboration with students, parents, staff and mental health professionals, we have curated a range of resources to signpost you to.. Whether you're looking for information on coping strategies, stress management techniques during exams, or seeking support for yourself or a friend, you'll find valuable insights and practical tools to navigate the ups and downs of life.
Our goal is to promote a culture of open dialogue surrounding mental health, reducing stigma, and creating a sense of belonging within our school community.
Explore the resources available in this section, and remember, you are not alone.
Meet the team who are here to support you every step of the way on your journey through school...

We were thrilled this week to take a group of year 3 and 4 children to the Change 4 Life Festival. This was an enjoyment and participation event, representing the School Games Values. All the children received a participation medal, plus medals were awarded to our children for honesty and team work. Well done everyone!

Year 1 are learning about the human body as part of their science topic. They have been learning about the parts of the human body and why each part is important. The class extended their learning this week by exploring their senses. Children worked in groups to complete a range of activities and identified which sense was used at each station.

Year 1 visited the Windmill community gardens in Margate. The children looked for signs of winter in the gardens and worked in groups to collect items as part of a scavenger hunt. The children also chose a tree in the gardens to make friends with ,they observed the tree closely and recorded the tree with an observational drawing. The children will visit again in the summer term to identify the differences between the seasons. 🌿

Year one have been learning the story of Goldilocks and the three bears. To help with this, the children created a text map to retell the story. A text map is a set of visual represtentations or actions that help the children to remember the story. Over time, the class will change the character and setting to write their own version of the goldilocks story. Great work year 1! 🐻
