Nurturing Touch

Date: 20th Feb 2026 @ 6:38pm

Some of us have participated in an Autumn themed nurturing touch session this term. This session aims to promote well-being & self esteem. It is done 1:1 with the adult responding to the pupils communications in a positive way. Music is played & different items are used to help engage the pupil. For example a pinecone may be rolled down the legs or a fan used to blow a breeze on a face.  The pupils are always given the opportunity to ask for more & their responses are recognised & valued.
