Wellbeing for ALL At South Hill School, we take pride in the pastoral support we offer our pupils and families. We have a wellbeing team which focuses on supporting pupils’ personal development and welfare. Our wellbeing team signposts families to services they may need. Through our therapeutic approach to behaviour, we promote resilience and independence. We use the ‘Zones of Regulation’ across the school, which is a behaviour approach used to teach pupils to self-regulate their emotions and to take ownership over their behaviour. Our aim is to make sure we have happy pupils who are ready to learn. We very much believe that good wellbeing underpins good behaviour and good learning. It is therefore the centre of the ethos at South Hill.

The Pied Piper of Hamelin Creative arts are really important to us here at South Hill, and this term saw Year 3 and 4 take to the stage in their amazing production of ‘The Pied Piper of Hamelin’. 120 pupils took part in the production, with children from Year 4 auditioning for and taking on the principle roles. The show was performed to the whole school, as well as a matinee and packed out evening performance to parents, carers and family members. One of our parents who attended the show said: I just wanted to say how absolutely amazing the school play was! The children were fantastic, and it was honestly the best thing I've ever come to see. The teachers have clearly worked extremely hard putting this together as was evidenced by the performance last night and I am sure by all of the other performances. Well done to the teachers and to the children, it was such a pleasure to watch! Year 4 parent We are incredibly proud of the outstanding efforts of all of our children; the show was incredible and really highlighted our pupil’s talents in dance, drama and singing. We can’t wait for the next show, by Year 6, in the Summer term!

The South Hill Colour Run Every summer, to promote healthy living, exercise and community fun, we hold, 'The South Hill Colour Run.' It is an afternoon of Music and Daily Mile circuits in which we get covered in paint or squirted with water! We have snacks and stalls too. This is a time for fun, exercise and community, all wrapped up in a rainbow of colours! Thank you to our amazing PTA for organising this wonderful event!

The Wellbeing Festival South Hill’s Music Festival – put wellbeing in the heart of the curriculum. ​ South Hill’s magnificent grounds played host to our Music Festival, in June 2022, which took place during our Feeling Good Week 2022. On Wednesday afternoon, the children enjoyed health snacks and each key stage sang and danced with their peers in the beautiful sunshine. We have never seen so many happy faces and the atmosphere was incredible. ​ The musical choices of each year group were linked to the 7 decades of Queen Elizabeth’s reign, and this linked with our Platinum Jubilee celebrations. From the Beatles through to Sam Ryder ‘Spaceman’ our pupils sang through the decades from 1950-2020’s in celebration of music and dancing through the ages. The pupils watched each other perform and cheered each other on. Mr Braithwaite interspersed the performances with classic pop songs that we could all enjoy together. It was great to see pupils from different year groups mixing, dancing and supporting one another. The atmosphere was amazing and was a truly joyous whole school wellbeing event. ​ A huge thank you to Mrs Toms our Music Lead for arranging this incredible event and of course Mr Braithwaite DJ extraordinaire.

Zhvillimi Shpirtëror, Moral, Social dhe Kulturor Në shkollën fillore South Hill ne e pranojmë që zhvillimi personal i nxënësve, shpirtërisht, moralisht dhe kulturalisht, luan një rol të rëndësishëm në aftësinë e tyre për të mësuar dhe arritur. Ne synojmë të sigurojmë një edukim që u siguron nxënësve mundësi për të eksploruar dhe zhvilluar vlerat dhe besimet e tyre, vetëdijen shpirtërore, standardet e larta të sjelljes personale, një qëndrim pozitiv ndaj njerëzve të tjerë, një kuptim të traditave të tyre sociale dhe kulturore dhe një vlerësim të larmia dhe pasuria e kulturave.
