Managing Anxiety<br />
Anxiety is a condition that can affect anyone and many<br />
anxiety disorders begin in childhood and adolescence. With<br />
nearly one in five young people experiencing high levels of<br />
anxiety, early intervention can benefit. This toolkit has been<br />
developed to help people understand these emotions, how<br />
to manage them and when to ask for help. There is<br />
information tailored for:<br />
Conquering the Multitasking Brain Drain<br />
Contrary to popular belief, multitasking interferes<br />
with the quality of learning. These suggestions can<br />
help students recognise that scattered focus isn't<br />
their friend during homework time…..<br />

Thursday 29 September was another successful open evening at Abbeywood<br />
Community School. From shocking science shows, to moving musical performances<br />
in the atrium, teachers and students of all talents came together to showcase all the<br />
amazing work we do here at Abbeywood. It was certainly a very eventful and<br />
thrilling evening!<br />
Particular highlights from the evening included:<br />
The Harry Potter themed Chemistry experiments, and mind blowing shows, which<br />
had no shortage of spectators.<br />
The never ending story that both children and adults alike wrote in English, written<br />
on sugar paper almost as big as the department itself!<br />
The laser cutter demonstration in Design Technology left visitors fascinated, and as an added bonus they each<br />
received their very own personalised key ring.<br />
The Art and Photography students helped children draw pictures of fruit, and take<br />
rather funny portraits of themselves in the art department.<br />
Overall it was a tremendous evening, with a focussed and electric atmosphere that<br />
left staff, pupils and parents feeling incredibly proud.<br />
