Last week, we celebrated Children's Mental Health Week with activities to support emotional wellbeing. Pupils explored ways to care for their mental health and build resilience. Here is just a glimpse of what we got up to:
- Outdoor Learning: Taking time to enjoy nature and use outdoors to support our wellbeing.
- Learning about our Emotions: Understanding and naming emotions to help manage them.
- Challenging and Growing our Emotions: Discussing how to face difficult feelings and develop emotional strength.
- Gratitude Jars: Each pupil reflected on things they were thankful for and shared with their peers. A special assembly was delivered by SPL2 where pupils led discussions about the importance of gratitude in everyday life. Our SPL2 and SPSC2 were also invited to a Take Ten workshop in the library which they found very relaxing taking part in a story massage and some Yoga.
- Celebrating Ourselves: Taking time to recognise and celebrate what makes us unique and special.
It was a fantastic week filled with thoughtful discussions, creative activities and plenty of fun!! Thank you to all our pupils and staff for embracing it with open hearts and minds!
