  • The current hall cost is £88 a year 
  • End-of-year badge cost per girl £20
  • Craft budget £150

We would also like to seek funding to organise a camping trip for the girls. Due to the small nature of the group, we have more difficulty in finding funding opportunities to arrange an end-of-year trip. The cost per girl would be £50, this would be a total cost of £600 to stay at the Blair activity centre with 3 leaders. This is the minimum cost as we would need funding for food £150, resources £200 and badges £30.

Irvine Royal Academy Parent Council - Mental Health Matters

2024-09-07  •  No comments  •  irvineroyalpc  •  Irvine

We wish to provide resources for pupil Mental Health Ambassadors (S5 and 6 pupils) to help them develop a safe space in the school where all young people can access support for their mental health. All Mental Health Ambassadors will receive training - the Parent Council will use Youth PB Funding to cover travel expenses and certificates/badges. Badges will ensure all Mental Health Ambassadors are easily identifiable to all young people in the school to approach if they want support.

  • Resources for safe space eg. posters, beanbags, fidget toys - £300
  • Travel expenses/badges/certificates - £200

In addition, we wish to increase awareness and challenge attitudes, beliefs and cultural norms that underpin gender-based violence, through the promotion of the Mentors in Violence Prevention (MVP) programme. This programme, aimed at S5 and 6 pupils, addresses physical violence, name-calling, sexting, coercive and controlling behaviour and harassment, which all have an impact on young people's mental health. The MVP programme supports young people to positively influence the attitudes and behaviours of their peers. Pupils will receive training which will then allow them to become MVP mentors to deliver programmes to Primary 7 pupils through to S3 pupils, with a focus on encouraging young people to become active bystanders, by challenging and reporting gender-based violence. The Parent Council will use Youth PB Funding to cover training travel expenses, and certificates/badges. The 16 Days of Action Against Domestic Violence Campaign, beginning 25th November, will be promoted by MVP mentors in the school through planned events (still to be decided) which the Parent Council hope to fund through Youth PB Funding. 

  • Travel expenses/badges/certificates - £200
  • Cost of snacks for pupils involved in the 16 Days Of Action - £100
  • Planned events run by MVP Mentors - £200
