Theraplay in P4

30th Mar 2023

P4 have been practising Theraplay. This is a way in which to guide children through playful, fun games, developmentally challenging and nurturing activities. The very act of engaging each other in this way helps the children feel secure, cared for, connected and worthy. Modern brain research indicates that activities such as this promote lifelong good mental health, as well as the mainstay of resilience in the face of adversity.  This, along with all our nurturing approaches, aims to help children understand, trust and thrive in their world.
