Peer Massage

Pitmaston has recently introduced Peer massage throughout the school. All children have been taught a simple massage routine that they perform on a friend.

Peer massage is used to:

Help children become calmer and have improved concentration.

Develops confidence and increased self esteem

Teach children to respect others and leads to social inclusion

Improve Emotional health

Help children recognise ‘good’ and ‘bad’ touch

Improve motor skills

Encourages visual and kinaesthetic learning.
