ACTIVE FAMILIES

Move More Together This New Year: Why Family Fitness Matters A new year always brings a sense of possibility, and for many families, it’s the perfect moment to reset routines and build healthier habits. One of the most straightforward – and most rewarding – changes you can make is to move more as a family. Not only does it boost physical fitness, but it strengthens bonds, builds confidence, and creates positive memories that last far beyond January.

This January, consider swapping one family movie night for a family movement night. Try a new class, find your local parkrun, explore a local trail, or simply dance around the kitchen while dinner cooks. Whatever you choose, the important thing is doing it together. Small steps made as a family can lead to big, lasting changes – and a healthier, happier year ahead.

Staying active doesn’t have to mean hours at the gym or structured training sessions. In fact, the most effective routines are the small, everyday moments of movement. A brisk family dog walk, dancing in the living room, a bike ride to the park, or a friendly game of football in the garden all count. When activity is fun and inclusive, it becomes something everyone looks forward to rather than a chore to tick off. Children who are active with their parents are more likely to develop healthy habits that follow them into adulthood. Being active together shows young people that fitness is enjoyable, achievable, and something the whole household values. It also boosts their mood, improves sleep, and helps them burn off the stresses of school and screen time. For adults, moving more with the family can be a brilliant motivator. It turns exercise into shared time rather than something squeezed into an already busy schedule. Many parents also find that being active together helps them reconnect with their children, especially as they grow older and spend more time online. Those small conversations during a walk, or the laughter during a family swim, are often where the best memories are made. There are also powerful wellbeing benefits. Being active increases energy levels, supports mental health, and helps reduce stress for both adults and children. Outdoor activity, in particular, is known to lift mood and encourage mindfulness – something many families crave after a busy year. familiesonline.co.uk

FAMILY LAW

Protecting the Grandparent Grandchild bond after separation Family Law advice from Elizabeth Burns, Solicitor, Ellisons Family Department

Grandparents often hold a cherished place in family life, offering love, wisdom and stability across generations. When family relationships break down through separation, divorce or conflict, their ability to maintain contact with grandchildren can suddenly become uncertain. of changes in their circumstances. The strength of the grandparent and grandchild relationship is an important part of this assessment. Where grandparents have lost contact because of difficulties between the parents, and one parent is also being refused contact, this does not prevent grandparents from making an application. However, the court will usually prioritise restoring the child’s relationship with their parent before considering wider family contact. In more complex situations, it is especially important to seek specialist legal advice.

U

nlike parents, grandparents do not have automatic rights to spend time with their grandchildren, even if they have been a constant and central figure in a child’s life. Losing contact, particularly when a close and meaningful bond already exists, can be deeply distressing for both grandparent and child. If a parent refuses contact, it is important to explore all possible ways of rebuilding communication before considering an application to the family court. Family counselling may help address the issues that led to the breakdown in communication. Mediation is another useful option, providing a structured environment in which everyone can express their concerns and explore solutions. A solicitor may also be able to assist by communicating directly with the child’s parent or parents to encourage an agreement. These steps can often prevent tensions from escalating and may avoid the need for court involvement, which can sometimes be viewed as confrontational. If reconciliation is not possible, grandparents may consider applying to the family court for a Child Arrangements Order. Grandparents do not have an automatic right to make this application, except in limited circumstances such as where a child has lived with them for at least three of the last five years. In most cases, the court must first grant permission for the application to proceed. When deciding whether to grant permission, the court will consider the existing relationship between the grandparent and the child, the nature and quality of that relationship and whether the application is likely to support the child’s welfare. If permission is granted, grandparents can then apply for a Child Arrangements Order to spend time with their grandchildren. When considering any application, the court’s primary concern is the welfare of the child. To reach its decision, the court uses what is known as the welfare checklist. This includes factors such as the child’s wishes and feelings depending on age, their physical, emotional and educational needs, any risk of harm and the likely impact

At Ellisons, our experienced Family Law solicitors understand how emotionally challenging these situations can be. We provide sensitive, tailored support to help families navigate disputes and work towards a positive outcome.

WHAT'S PETS FAMILY ON

FEATURE SPONSORS:

The benefits of having a family pet Welcoming a pet into your home can be one of the most rewarding choices a family makes. Whether it’s the wag of a dog’s tail, the comforting purr of a cat, or even the gentle chatter of a small animal, pets bring warmth, joy and a sense of companionship that enriches everyday life. One of the most significant benefits of having a family pet is the emotional support they offer. Animals have an incredible ability to help children and adults alike feel calmer and more secure. Stroking a pet has been shown to reduce stress and anxiety, while their unconditional affection boosts overall wellbeing. For children, this bond can be particularly powerful, helping them develop confidence, empathy and emotional resilience. Family pets also play a valuable role in building responsibility. Feeding, walking, grooming or cleaning out a pet’s space teaches children important life skills. These simple daily routines help young people understand commitment and routine, while giving them a sense of pride in caring for another living being. Pets also encourage families to be more active and connected. Dog walks become shared adventures, offering fresh air, exercise and an opportunity to explore Suffolk’s

beautiful countryside together. Even smaller pets prompt screen-free moments as families observe, play and interact. In addition to the physical and emotional benefits, pets often become the heart of the household. They bring laughter, create memories and help unite family members through shared care and affection. For many families, a pet isn’t “just an animal” — they’re a beloved companion who makes the home feel complete. Whether you’re considering your first pet or adding to your furry (or feathered!) family, the rewards of pet ownership are plentiful. A family pet doesn’t just change your routine, they enrich your lives in the most wonderful ways.

WHAT'S ON EDUCATION

Spot, Support, Refer: the role of schools in children’s mental health By Erin Miller Children’s mental health needs have increased sharply in recent years. According to NHS data, around one in five children ages 8 to 16 now has a probable mental health disorder, up from one in nine in 2017. Symptoms include anxiety, low mood and eating difficulties. While schools are often the first to notice when something is wrong, many have limited resources to meet emotional needs. So, what are your child’s school’s obligations in relation to child and adolescent mental health? Understanding what falls under the umbrella of mental health can be confusing. Mental health refers to a person’s emotional, psychological and social wellbeing - how they think, feel and cope with life. Not every instance of behavioural change is a diagnosable mental health condition: temporary stress and friendship issues are normal ups and downs of growing up. Ideally, schools and parents should work together to identify patterns of behaviour, rather than one-off instances. While schools have a duty of care to safeguard pupils and promote wellbeing, this does not extend to diagnosing or treating mental health conditions or offering clinical-style interventions. Their legal duties focus on noticing, recording and referring concerns to services such as GPs, Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) or educational psychologists. Under the Equality Act 2010, schools must make reasonable adjustments if a mental health difficulty amounts to a disability and under safeguarding laws, they must act if a child’s safety is at risk. Where needs are long term and significantly affect education, these can be recognised through an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP), which sets out the support the school and local authority must provide.

To receive an EHCP, it must be shown that the child’s needs have a clear impact on learning and require additional support beyond what the school can usually offer.

What schools are NOT legally obligated to do State-maintained schools are not legally required to provide clinical treatment, counselling or employ mental health professionals. They are also not obliged to have a separate mental health policy and they are not responsible for managing or funding long-term clinical care or replacing NHS services. Schools don’t have to tailor the entire curriculum for mental health reasons unless a child’s needs amount to a disability or are formally set out in an EHCP. Finally, schools are not required to automatically authorise absences due to anxiety, low mood or other emotional distress without supporting medical evidence.

What great practice looks like While schools are not legally required to provide counselling or mental health programmes, many demonstrate exceptional practice by embedding wellbeing throughout school life. Great schools create a whole-school culture of care, where emotional health is valued alongside academic progress. Staff are properly trained to recognise early signs of distress and to respond with sensitivity and consistency. Pupils feel safe to speak up and parents are treated as partners rather than bystanders. Strong practice often includes a named mental health lead, clear referral routes to specialist services and close collaboration with external professionals such as school nurses, educational psychologists or CAMHS teams. Schools may offer drop-in wellbeing sessions, peer-support schemes or access to qualified counsellors on site.

12 Families Suffolk: Issue 87

Although many of these examples are not statutory duties, you could still suggest some of them if you are providing feedback to your child’s school. Keep in mind that effective schools succeed by building an inclusive, compassionate environment where wellbeing is embedded in the culture for students, staff and the wider school community. Erin Miller is a teacher with a keen interest in how research can be used in the classroom to improve learning.

When and where to get help If you have raised your concerns about your child’s mental health but feel your child’s school is not taking them seriously, start by meeting with the class teacher or pastoral lead to explain your worries. If the issue continues, contact the SENCO, headteacher or governing body. You can also seek advice from your local authority, the Parent Partnership, SENDIASS service or organisations such as Mind. CAMHS offers assessments and treatment for children up to the age of 18 for a variety of mental health problems. Start by speaking to your GP about the issue and requesting a referral to CAMHS or community services. CAMHS assesses and treats problems such as anxiety, depression, eating disorders and the effects of trauma. It offers a range of support which can include individual, group, or family therapy sessions, creative therapies, medication management, and, in some cases, inpatient hospital care. Some CAMHS teams also specialise in conditions like ADHD and autism. Crucially, remember you are not alone and support is available.

EDUCATION

Character Education at Finborough’s Early Years and Prep School

and games. Weekly outdoor sessions at Forest School allow youngsters to explore, play, and grow in a natural setting. Finborough pupils benefit from green spaces, complete with a treehouse, as a living classroom. Through seasonal exploration, imaginative play, storytelling and hands-on science, pupils build resilience, teamwork and independence. Forest School sessions, in particular, help children develop practical problemsolving skills, curiosity, and a strong connection with nature which are all valuable aspects of their character development and emotional wellbeing.

At Finborough School, character formation begins from the very first classroom, in Nursery, Pre-Prep and Prep, as part of a deliberate commitment to raise not only capable students, but compassionate, confident and resilient young people. The school’s Early Years and Prep curriculum blends strong academic foundations with a broader “whole-child” ethos. From Reception onwards, children at the Pre-Prep level not only learn reading, writing and maths, but are also encouraged to develop empathy, kindness, and emotional awareness. In everyday activities, whether circle time, story sessions, play or lessons, children are invited to reflect on how they treat others, to share ideas, to help friends and to build a sense of community. That same care extends into their learning process: pupils are encouraged to talk about their thinking, recognise their feelings, and approach challenges with curiosity and confidence. This early nurturing of self-awareness and independence lays the groundwork for lifelong learning and personal growth. Finborough’s curriculum for early years offers breadth and variety. Alongside core academic subjects, children enjoy specialist-led classes in Music, Drama, P.E. and Tennis, and even begin learning French from Reception, through songs, stories

UMMA NITIMUR AD S

As pupils progress into Prep School, this foundational character work evolves into a more mature, structured framework. The school’s philosophy, taken from the “Seven Habits of Highly Effective People” offers a common language of behaviour, responsibility and respect across all ages. This ensures continuity, enabling children to grow in self-confidence, empathy and leadership as they move up the school. At Finborough, character education isn’t an add-on. It’s embedded in every lesson, every activity, every interaction — from the earliest days in Reception, through Prep, and beyond. In doing so, the school aims to prepare children not simply for exams, but for life: to be kind, thoughtful, resilient citizens who are ready to contribute positively to the world around them. We warmly invite you to see the Finborough difference for yourself. Join us at our whole-school Open Morning on Saturday 17th January, from 9.30 am. Book online Friday 7th November 9am to 11am at www.finboroughschool.co.uk or email admissions@ finboroughschool.co.uk

Independent, Co-educational Day and Boarding School, plus Nursery Rated ‘Excellent’ in all areas by the Independent Schools Inspectorate, Finborough School offers a unique character focused approach to education from its nursery all the way through to its sixth form.

EDUCATION

Celebrating the Individual One of Suffolk’s leading independent schools, Framlingham College, explains why an individualised ethos is vital in shaping children’s successful futures.

A

t Framlingham College, there is no typical Framlinghamian, no singular path that our pupils take: we are academics, actors, musicians, expeditioners, sports stars, innovators, linguists, scientists and artists. Often, we are many things within one, each with our own story to create. As one of the region’s top independent schools, our ability to offer flexibility in the curriculum, and the freedom to tailor to individual ambitions, means that the success of every child’s achievements here are the result of learning in a supportive, ambitious, and aspirational environment. Louise North, Principal of Framlingham College, said: “At Framlingham, we are all about individuality. From the moment we meet your child, we are passionate about getting to know them. Our individualised ethos allows every child to develop their interests, pursue their passions and take the initiative in learning, all done in the context of preparing them for their next steps. “All our pupils are individual, and they all bring with them a plethora of different passions. I like to say we have around

600 ‘free spirits’ across our Prep and Senior School and ultimately, it's our job to nurture them, find out what makes them tick, provide opportunities and guide them on their individual educational journeys to ensure that when they leave us, they leave as young adults ready for their next chapter.”

Our individualised ethos allows every child to develop their interests, pursue their passions and take the initiative in learning. Head of Framlingham College Prep School, Simon Roche, said: “Our academic staff use adaptive teaching to tailor and correctly respond to each individual pupil while also instilling resilience, perseverance and challenge in each child.

“Our individualized approach, targeted intervention and strong support network – such as our award winning pastoral care, group booster lessons and additional 1-2-1 sessions – is not just about bolstering pupils results, it’s about stretching the top and igniting self-belief in every pupil to achieve more than they thought possible.” An individualised ethos not only ignites every pupil’s passion and self-belief, but it also builds confidence and unearths self-discovery, it encourages schools to evolve, adapt and innovate the curriculum for the future, it creates a supportive and respectful atmosphere between pupils, and it bolsters the realisation and determination that we can all achieve beyond what we think possible so when our pupils do leave, they leave knowing who they are and equipped with the knowledge, confidence and empowerment to take on their adult world. Discover Framlingham College during an open morning, taster day or a private visit. Email admissions@ framlinghamcollege.co.uk and let’s see what your child’s story will be!
