Children’s Mental Health Week 2024

7th Feb 2024

This week we have been focusing on how we can look after ourselves, not only physically, but also our mental health. We have been practising mindfulness, getting our day off to a great start by participating in the ‘Walking bus’ from O’Hanlon’s each morning, as well as some very special PE lessons with Peter from Bee Active, amongst many other activities. Thank you to Dave from Sustrans who visited each class on Thursday and carried out fantastic activities to emphasise the importance of “Taking Five”. We rounded off the week on Friday dressing up in red or as a superhero, with a wonderful assembly talking about how we need to celebrate our own strengths and superpowers.
