Grangemouth High School's Lighthouse. Providing a calm, nurturing and welcoming environment for our young people.
“Nurture isn’t an add-on—it’s what lets pupils fully engage in their work. Today, this pupil tackled a literacy task with focus and involvement. They also worked as part of a team, connecting with others, and letting conversations flow naturally. #Nurture #EngagedLearning #ConnectionsMatter

A pupil wanted to try knitting, so we learned together. The gentle rhythm & chat helped them find calm & focus again. Each stitch built confidence, care, & quiet joy — a nurturing rhythm, a new skill, & wellbeing working side by side. #MindfulMoments #Article31 #NurturingPractice #LearningTogether

Today is World Mental Health Day 💚
Taking care of your mental health is just as important as your physical health.
Sometimes it’s hard to talk—especially with family or friends. That’s ok. Reaching outside your circle can make all the difference.
You’re not alone. #WMHD #MentalHealthMatters

The news can be a lot lately—so much happening all at once. It’s normal to feel overwhelmed. Take breaks when you need to, talk with someone you trust,& focus on what you can control. Here are some helpful tips to manage the stress & stay balanced ⬇️

Lately, we’ve been talking to pupils about journaling—a simple but powerful self-care tool to feel more in control when life gets overwhelming. Writing thoughts down eases the mental load, calms the mind & creates breathing space. A small habit, big impact. Why not try it? 📝 #Journaling #SelfCare

To celebrate National Poetry Day, pupils explored the sights, sounds, and feelings of autumn by writing their own poems. 🍂 From crunchy leaves to misty mornings and golden light, they shared thoughtful ideas about what autumn means to them. 🍁🌰 #NationalPoetryDay #AutumnPoetry

Not every day will go your way. Not every day will feel okay. But it is okay to treat yourself with kindness and compassion. You’re not alone, and this feeling will pass.

Monday isn’t a bad day by default — it’s what we make of it. A fresh start, new challenges, maybe even a great day. Sprinkle it with positivity! Letting go of old assumptions can do wonders for our wellbeing. Let Monday surprise you. 😁 #Mindset #Wellbeing #Positivity

Tough day? Be kind to yourself. Take a moment to breathe and know it’s okay. Change your scenery if you can, or find a quiet moment. Today will end, and you’re doing your best. Remember, you’re not alone. Saying “today was hard” is a start. 💙 #OneDayAtATime #KeepGoing #HardDaysHappen

This morning in The Haven, nurture led the way. A dysregulated pupil talked about the flowers. A passing by colleague stopped & gave an impromptu lesson on pollination.
The pupil’s mood shifted. A quiet, powerful moment of connection unfolded 🌸

🐠 In The Harbour, Goldie the goldfish is more than a pet — it’s a teacher. Pupils learn care, empathy, and responsibility. For some, watching Goldie gently opens the door to conversation. Sometimes the smallest things make the biggest difference 💛

This is your Monday reminder:don’t spend your time comparing yourself to others.
We learn & grow in our own way. What you do well? Maybe you’re kind,a good friend, or really trying your best.
It’s okay to go at your own pace. Be proud of who you are, just as you!

Friday check-in: 😃
Weekend is loading… ⏳ but before it fully downloads, take a breath.

Ask yourself — what do I need from these next two days?
Rest? Connection? Inspiration? Movement?

Whatever it is, give yourself permission to choose you this weekend.

A calm & meaningful 1:1 session today in the Lighthouse 💛
Supporting a YP as they navigated feelings of loss & the complex emotions that come with it.
Every child deserves to be heard, supported, & gently guided through life’s difficult moments.

Sometimes support looks like sharing something simple 🧩 It’s not just about solving a puzzle. It’s about being present, feeling safe & talking without pressure.
In a world that moves fast, small moments like this help build trust.

A reminder to start the week - on the days that feel hard, be even kinder to yourself. You deserve to hear kind words & to be looked after. Try to give yourself these things as much as you can. Remember we’re here to listen if you need us in The Lighthouse or The Haven. #Kindness #MondayMotivation
