We will be holding our 3rd Forth Valley and West Lothian Nurture Wee Blether on the 25th November 2020, 4-5pm. In our last Wee Blether, a recurring theme which you wanted to discuss in more depth was how we are supporting our staff, children, young people and families to continue to feel a sense of community during this time. Covid-19 has meant that some of our usual approaches are perhaps not possible due to current restrictions but we know that feeling of community and relationships are more important than ever.

This Wee Blether will give practitioners from across FVWL the space to explore this topic together and will be facilitated by Educational Psychologists from across FVWL and Education Scotland.

We will discuss the following questions during the session:

• How are we using the nurture principles to support our feelings of school community and identity for our staff?

• Our children and young people?

• And our families?
