Children’s Mental Health Week – February 2024
Our school participated in lots of different activities over Children’s Mental Health Week in February, including a live webcast with Place2be and the School of Kindness, work done in computing lessons on staying safe on the internet and a visit from Altru Theatre planned for the beginning of March.

One of the activities the children participated in was to think about what was most important to them and write or draw them in a spiral. We will be updating our Mental Health display at the front of school with all of the hard work the children have put in to what they view as important.
