Trauma can present itself in so many different ways in the classroom and at home.

We should always be curious about behaviour.

💙Trauma Aware Monday 💙 today it’s all about supporting children and young people who want to have control of everything. It’s probably one of the biggest challenges I’ve faced in teaching and as a parent. It takes patience and understanding.

Did you know that hugs are good for your emotional and mental wellbeing?

A 20 second hug releases the feel-good hormone, oxytocin that help with feelings of connection and trust.
