information SERVICE DETAILS

SU Groups create a place for young people to explore the Christian faith, bring friends, share ideas and enjoy time together. Through storytelling, open discussions, encouraging questions and sharing experiences pupils are invited to discover where faith can play a part in individual lives and the community.

Currently we run SU Groups in Pirniehall and Craigroyston Primary School. In Craigroyston Community High School we run weekly drop in sessions at lunchtime.

There is opportunity for this work to grow into other schools in the area and also a desire to build relationship with schools to give support to young people who are seen as being most vulnerable.

PRIMARY SCHOOLS

In our primary schools we

- Run lunchtime craft and games groups that children in P6 & 7 can drop into
- Have a weekly Scripture Union group in each school for P6 & P7
- Offer 1:1 support to a number of pupils that the school identifies, supporting with emotional health and behaviour
- We co-lead a Seasons for Growth group regularly in one primary school, offering support to those affected by bereavement and/or loss
- In the summer term we support P7s moving up to secondary school by running enhanced transition groups as well as offering tailored individual support for some P7s

Craigroyston SECONDARY SCHOOL

In Craigroyston Community High School we….

- Facilitate a lunchtime Drop In for S1-S3’s where they can come along with friends and chat to leaders about any issues or worries, have lunch together with snacks provided and play board games
- Offering counselling sessions with a qualified counsellor 1:1 one day a week
- Offer 1:1 support for young people identified by Pupil Support Leaders, who would benefit from someone to listen, support and work through concerns and issues
