Saying Goodbye to Greg is a bereavement training resource set in story form, using a real-life situation involving children in a primary school. Its aim is to lead primary teachers through the bereavement process in the event of a tragic death of a pupil. The sensitive and professional handling of the subject gives inspiration to guide schools through difficult circumstances and help teachers prepare for the unthinkable. The material includes: examining children's attitudes, coping With the school day; exploring spiritual issues; explaining the funeral, cremation and the role of the funeral director; considering our own experiences and attitudes towards death; understanding the process of bereavement, complications and referral, questioning where God is in the situation and moving on.
