St Anne’s Catholic Primary School, Nantwich will host a twilight session to discuss the set up and impact of the OPAL (Outdoor Play And Learning) approach to their breaktimes. This is a must for anyone thinking of doing the same in their school. It will help you to fully understand how to engage all stakeholders from the beginning, the costs involved and most importantly the positive impact it has had on the pupils and staff at St Anne’s Catholic Primary School.
Due to the practical nature of this course it needs to be held in person to allow attendees to look at the overall physical structure of the outdoor areas.

Booking forms coming soon

‘Effective use of Governor Visits’ training on Wednesday 04 March 2026, 6:00pm – 8:00pm via Zoom.

In this workshop we will address stress as a potentially positive as well as negative part of our lives. We will work through a process of stress management where the focus is upon each individual developing an understanding of their own stress triggers, symptoms & stress levels, & targeting these towards becoming a healthy motivational force. Individuals will develop ‘stress-proofing’ techniques which can be used in the workplace in addition to elsewhere. We discuss stressors unique to school staff, consider how to recognise signs of stress in ourselves / colleagues / children, & discuss how we may potentially support others
