  • Time to Talk Day 2025

    Published 07/02/25

    At Woodlands, we believe that mental health matters, and that’s why we were proud to take part in Time to Talk Day—the UK’s biggest conversation about mental health.

    Sponsored by Mind and The Co-op, this important day encourages open discussions about mental well-being, helping to break the stigma and remind everyone that no one has to struggle alone.

    As part of our commitment to supporting mental health in our school community, we hosted a Parents’ Time to Talk event. Led by Melissa, our school counsellor, and Miss Heron, our Academy Community Pioneer, the session provided a safe and welcoming space for parents to come together, share experiences, and explore ways to support their own well-being as well as their children’s.

    The event sparked meaningful conversations and reinforced the message that talking about mental health—whether with friends, family, or professionals—can make a real difference.

    Thank you to everyone who joined us to mark this important day. Let’s continue the conversation and support one another, not just on Time to Talk Day, but every day.

    For more information on mental health support, visit Mind’s website or speak to a member of our team.

  • Jamie's Farm Monmouth | January 2025

    Published 27/01/25

    12 of Woodlands’ Year 5 and 6 children spent a week in Wales at Jamie’s Farm. The children helped the staff on a real working farm and became farmers for the week!

    📅 When? Monday 27th - Friday 31st January 2025

    📍 Where? Jamie’s Farm, Monmouth, Wales

    🤔 What?

    Jamie’s Farm uniquely combines farmingfamily and mindfulness sessions into a 5-day residential with a focus on giving children time and space to reflect, to renew and determine a new path for themselves. We do this by creating an environment where they feel respected, and are given opportunities to display their talents and show responsibility.

    What does a typical day look like on the farm?

    • 7:30am: Rise and shine! Morning jobs start at 8 am!
    • 9:15am: A delicious breakfast made by one of the groups.
    • 10:30am: Farm jobs – working with the animals, doing maintenance on the farm, cooking lunch and preparing food.
    • 12:15pm: A delicious lunch prepared by one of the groups
    • 1:30pm: Farm jobs – again out on the farm, doing the jobs that need doing to keep the animals healthy and what is best for the farm.
    • 4:00pm: A tasty snack and then a walk or adventure!
    • 5:30pm: Shower time – farm work is smelly so it’s time to get clean.
    • 6:30pm: A delicious evening meal and games round the table. Then a film or time by the bonfire.
    • 8:30pm: Time for bed! 

    Take a look at what they got up to on this year's visit! 👇
