Heathrow Primary School
Calm Corners
At Heathrow every classroom has a calm corner, which is a dedicated, safe space where children can go to manage their emotions, practice self-regulation, and find a sense of calm when feeling overwhelmed or upset. It helps children regain control and refocus, preventing escalating situations and promoting emotional well-being.
Calm Boxes
Each classroom has access to a calm box. This is a collection of items that can be used by children to self-soothe and manage stress and anxiety. The box is filled with sensory toys, fidgets, stress balls, colouring sheets, or other calming items. Children can use the items in the calm box to build their skills in self-regulation and enhance emotional wellbeing.
