The virtual workshops ran by the charity Little Troopers this week visited Danesfield School with all of the activities created by education experts.

Louise Fetigan, founder and operations manager at Little Troopers, said: “There are tens of thousands of military children across the UK and the support they receive in school is very varied depending on where they live in the country and what school they go to.

The children took part in storytelling, imaginative play, movement and drama and were shown tools that could help them navigate some of the challenges they might face as military children, either now or in the future.

Susan Monks, a teacher at the school, commented: “It was lovely to see the children enjoying talking about their own experiences and recognising that other children around them had also experienced these different emotions.

“We're looking forward to being able to use some of the games again and do more workshops in the future to open it up to all our forces children.”

The workshops were funded by the Armed Forces Covenant Fund and offered schools a snapshot of some of the resources available in the Little Troopers Primary School Resource Pack and Military Child Wellbeing Course.
