THRIVE and Well-Being

             "What we nourish today, will flourish tomorrow"

We want all children at Chelmondiston Church of England Primary School to flourish, so we have introduced The Thrive Approach in order to support their emotional and social development. The aim is to help our children feel happy and secure, able to enjoy friendships, relate well to others and be ready and able to learn.

The Thrive Approach Thrive is a specific way of working with all children that helps to develop their social and emotional well-being, enabling them to engage with life and learning. It supports them in becoming more self- assured, capable and adaptable. It can also address any troubled, or troubling, behaviours providing a firm foundation for academic attainment.

Positive relationships are at the heart of Thrive. We use these relationships, together with play and creative activities, to give children key experiences at each different stage of their development.
