Walking to School - Active Travel Map
Walking to school is a great way to engage with your child and teach them about crossing the roads safely along your journey.
Walking to school with your child counts towards the recommended daily target of at least 180 minutes of physical activity for children under 5 years old, or a minimum of 60 minutes of moderate activity for 5 to 18 year olds!
Walking is the most popular way parents travel and you and your child can meet lots of friends from school along the way.

Zones of Regulation
At Grange Primary School, we recognise the importance of promoting positive mental health and emotional wellbeing to our students and their families. We aim to create an open culture around the discussion of mental health and wellbeing and to empower our children be able to regulate their emotions. Over the next term we will be implementing the Zones of Regulation curriculum across the school. We aim to teach our pupils to identify emotions in themselves and others and provide them with a bank of strategies to help regulate their emotions and improve their wellbeing.
The Zones of Regulation is based around the use of four colours to help children self-identify how they’re feeling and categorise it based on colour. It helps children better understand their emotions, sensory needs and thinking patterns. The children learn different strategies to cope and manage their emotions based on which colour zone they’re in. Additionally, the Zones of Regulation helps children to recognise their own triggers, learn to read facial expressions, develop problem-solving skills, and become more attuned to how their actions affect other people.

Wellbeing Support for Children
Mrs. Campbell provides support for children across the whole school ranging from Nursery to Year 6. A lot of the support is tailor made for the children based on their wellbeing needs.
Following the Coronavirus Pandemic we identified a vital need for emotional, mental health and social skills support for the children of Grange Primary.
Support that can be accessed at Grange Primary includes:
- 1:1 Safe Space - A time for your child to speak about anything that is on their mind.
- Grange Space - A self-referral method that each child can use to talk to an adult about anything at all.
- Small Group Interventions - Focusing on friendships, attachments, self-esteem, confidence and emotional literacy.
- Bereavement support - We can support you to get help for your child via bereavement charities.
- Counselling for children exposed to Domestic Violence - We can support you with getting the help your child needs via victim support UK.
