Jigsaw PSHE

Relationships

This unit aims to look at:

In the Year 5 Jigsaw Relationships theme, children explore various aspects of relationships, including families, friendships, and online interactions. They learn about healthy relationships, communication, boundaries, and online safety. The unit also covers topics like conflict resolution, assertiveness, self-esteem, and recognizing stereotypes. 

There is a wonderful website below that is useful for your child and for you as a parent. It has games and information about feelings, health, illnesses and sections on body image, mental health and much more. There is also a section for you, the parent, to refer to for information on the school nurse and it shows local Solihull support services.
