April is the Month of the Military Child – a time to celebrate together

Highland has many Children and Young People from Armed Forces Families: Army, RAF, Navy and Marines from Regular, Reserve and Veteran families.

We hope you will join the many Schools and Early Learning Centres across Highland, nationally and internationally by raising awareness and understanding of being a Child or Young Person from an Armed Forces family;  their lived experiences, challenges they may have faced and overcome, the numerous countries they may have lived in, the cultures they may have experienced.

The Month of the Military Child uses the Dandelion as its logo: their seeds are blown and scattered but they land, take root, blossom, and thrive.

Celebrate their Unique Life and Journey

CLB Training Dates

We are running our Change, Loss & Bereavement Awareness Raising sessions again next term. If you have a look at our Training Pathway we recommend this (and some other resources and training) as a good foundation to exploring how to support Children and Young People who are experiencing change and loss. You can click on the links within the flyer to take you to the booking pages which will give you more information about the content and who it is suitable for.
Please also see our new poster for professionals working with C&YP experiencing change and loss. This gives an overview of what you can find right here on the CLB website.
