TAKE 5 SCHOOL

​

St Colm’s is in the process of becoming a TAKE 5 school. Our school has strived to find ways to promote health and wellbeing for pupils, staff and parents. We have worked alongside the Northern Ireland Chest Heart and Stroke Association to develop a Well Team in school over the past number of years.  

​

Our Pastoral Team has implemented a range of programmes to link closely with the Take 5 steps to Wellbeing. These have included:

​

• Self Compassion classes (Staff & Parents)

• Papyrus – SPOT Training

• Team Build – Recharge and Re-uvenate

• EWTS Programme (Yr8-10 student)

• Health Day & Wellbeing Celebration Day

​

There are five simple steps to help maintain and improve your wellbeing. As a school we try to build these into our daily routine– we think of them as our ‘five a day’ for wellbeing.
