--- title: "Community & Parent Workshops" url: "https://www.lmpsdorset.org/community-links/community-parent-workshops" school: "Lytchett Matravers" --- # Community & Parent Workshops ### Early Help and Pastoral – Drop in Sessions We would like to introduce ‘Shelley White’ who is our school Early Help Link Worker. Shelley works closely with the school to support our children and their wider families, for lots of different reasons. ‘Early Help’ describes any service that supports children and families in times of need. Examples of Early Help services may include parenting support, signposting to play and activity groups, emotional health and well-being support, communication and language support amongst other things. This service enables us to work collaboratively to continue providing the most appropriate support for you and your child as best we can. Shelley would like to offer some ‘open-invitation’ drop-in sessions alongside our school Pastoral Care Worker Mrs Kate McGrail. These will occur the last Monday of every month. The next session will be held on Monday 27th January 2025 from 2.00-3.15pm in the school Music Studio. Please feel free to drop in if you have any concerns or would like to find out more. **A full list of our ‘Early Help & Pastoral drop in’ session dates:** - Monday 27th January 2025 - Monday 31st March 2025 - Monday 28th April 2025 - Monday 30th June 2025 When you arrive, Kate & Shelley will be there to meet you.
