Mental Health Awareness Workshop

This morning, we hosted a coffee morning where we welcomed parents and carers into school for a workshop on children’s mental health, delivered by Healthy Schools. The session gave families an insight into understanding children’s mental health, recognising early signs of difficulty and learning ways to support a child who may be struggling. It also highlighted the importance of looking after their own wellbeing as parents and carers.

How to stay safe!

During our PSHE lesson, Year 1 explored the importance of staying safe both at school and in the wider community. Working in teams, the children examined a range of pictures and discussed the rules they should follow in different situations. They also identified trusted adults and people who can help them in various settings, developing their understanding of how to keep themselves safe and who to turn to if they need support.

Hello Yellow Day

Today, our Year 1 children took part in Hello Yellow Mental Health Day to show their support for looking after mental health and wellbeing.
The children all came to school wearing something yellow, helping to fill our classroom with happiness, and positivity! We were so proud to see how thoughtfully they joined in and how well they understood the importance of caring for themselves and others.

The children enjoyed activities including mindful colouring and peer massage.
