WREN Support

No drop-in this Friday but I will be back next month for the SEND summer sessions at Albrighton and Donington Parish Council and Library 😊

Calling all young Dyslexic Thinkers! 📣
We want to see your Dyslexic Thinking skills in action! 🚀

We’re looking for children aged 5–12 to share a quick video of their unique strengths. Whether you’re a master at visualising exciting worlds, an expert at exploring new ideas, or a natural at connecting with people - we want to celebrate YOU!

The Mission: 🎬
Record a short clip (under 30 seconds) of your child telling us: "My Dyslexic Thinking strength is..." or “I’m really good at..”

Bonus Step: Please also include a clear portrait photo of your child so we can feature them in a montage of Dyslexic Thinkers from across the globe!

Why join in?
• Be a Star: Your clip could be featured on the big screen at our upcoming event in London this April! 🌟
• Win Tickets: Every entry goes into a raffle to win tickets to join our event in central London on the morning of the 25th April! 🎟️

How to enter:
1. Film a quick clip on your phone (portrait mode is best!).
2. Email it to [email protected] with the subject line ‘April Event Submission’.
3. Submit by 16th April!

Let’s show the world that thinking differently is the ultimate advantage. We can’t wait to see your brilliance! 🌈

So much of this reinforces the importance of getting it right for children early on - including the language we use and the support we make available.

✨ Wellbeing at St Thomas’ Cheadle ✨

What a wonderful day spent with all the children at St Thomas’ in Cheadle on Friday, exploring emotional regulation through Kate Silverton’s Lizard, Baboon and Wise Owl framework. 🦎🐒🦉

Together, we learned how our brains respond to big feelings — and how we can calm our “lizard” and “baboon” brains to let our “wise owl” take charge.

The children engaged beautifully in mindful collage and zentangle activities, using breathwork and creativity to help their Wise Owls stay calm and focused. 🧘‍♀️🎨

Such a joy to see so many thoughtful reflections and moments of calm from these young learners. 🌿💫

At the village bakery until 10am for the drop in # # #
