Supporting wellbeing 
We are living in extraordinary, unprecedented times and it is natural for us all, especially children, to feel anxious and worried. This is a normal reaction, and some stress is to be expected. Although we may be facing living in isolation, we should never feel isolated when we know that we are part of community and that we are loved by God. We know that you will support your children through what is undoubtedly a challenging and unsettling time.
If you have any concerns about how your child is coping or you need any other support from the school, please let us know by contacting us at: enquiries@st-ignatius.enfield.sch.uk
