About sixty parents, governors, teachers and staff keen to learn about the potential of mindfulness attended the session.

21st September – Mindfulness Taster session at West Grove in Southgate, a primary school in the heart of the community. Over twenty teachers and other staff attended this highly engaging session.

During the taster sessions at these schools, we talked about the possibilities of using Mindfulness in education to support staff wellbeing and performance as well as wellbeing and attainment of children.
