MKC Heroes
MKC Heroes Group
Are you a member of a service family?
If you are you will be aware of the mix of pride and concern that is a part of everyday life when family members are away. You probably know that school routines are helpful when you are dealing with separation and worry. But there are days that are more challenging and support is available in school for those tough days. We are part of the national MKC Heroes group that aims to help students with service family links in schools. You do not need to join – if you have family members in the military services you are already a member.
There are several members of staff and older students who are part of service families who will work with our Heroes Group.
If this interests you or you have any suggestions please see Mrs Wilkins (based in HU7) or email her at twilkins@plymstockschool.org.uk
