Rainbows fosters emotional healing amongst children, young people and adults who are grieving a loss through a death, divorce, separation or any other painful transition in their lives.

Rainbows provide a safe setting in school in which young people can talk through their feelings with their peers who are experiencing similar situations. The groups are run by two facilitators to enable the students to express their feelings.

Rainbows acknowledges that grief needs to be recognised and supported: not denied, buried or ignored. It supports self-esteem, trust, confidence and resilience. It promotes emotional development and positive, healthy relationships.

There will be two groups running during the school year. These will be KS3 and KS4 /5. The course runs over 12-14 weeks, for one hour each week and the group will have between six and eight students attending. 

If you feel your child would benefit from joining this group, please email fblackett@st-peters.surrey.sch.uk for further information.
