Spanish lessons and Relax Kids classes

20-September-21

Spanish

This year we are pleased to inform you that we are once again able to resume Spanish lessons for pupils of P2 - 7. Liliana, our Spanish tutor, who has a long-standing association with St Joseph’s, has recommenced Spanish lessons and now visits the school every Thursday to provide this tuition.

Relax Kids

In addition, we are offering Relax Kids sessions to each class in the school. Relax Kids supports your children’s mental and emotional health and wellbeing with a range of tools and techniques to help calm his/her body and mind and build confidence and self-esteem. It uses a pioneering 7-step whole-brain holistic approach and fun, magical and creative techniques to help your children feel happier and healthier.

Between now and Christmas, your child will receive seven weekly sessions with Mrs Magee, our trained practitioner. Your child’s teacher will keep you informed of the relevant dates.

Details of Voluntary Donation

To help finance these additional classes, we are asking you to make a voluntary donation to school funds. For Relax Kids this is set at £10 per pupil.

To facilitate Spanish lessons, we are requesting a voluntary donation of £5 per child, each term that your child receives Spanish tuition. This equates to:

Class

A payment item for both donations will be set up on ParentPay to facilitate this. Please contact the school office if you need advice on this.

Managing the school finances continues to be challenging and it is only with your continued support that we are able to offer these additional lessons.

Kind regards

Mr Donaldson
