MENTAL HEALTH FOCUS - feelings, thoughts and actions16 May 2023 (by admin) |
This week the children will be focusing on their MENTAL HEALTH. The school assembly focused on this IMPORTANT area. Children were shown several video clips on BEING AWARE OF THEIR MENTAL HEALTH and UNDERSTANDING IT.
TACKLING MENTAL HEALTH is an emotive subject. Mental health affects all of us. Our HEAD SPACE is key and we MUST all do our very best to look after ourselves and each other.
Talking, listening, just being there for someone, walking, running, listening to music, prayer, singing, taking a relaxing bath, taking time out...reading a book, playing games/sport, watching a film, a theatre visit
Just small steps in the right direction.
Your MENTAL HEALTH and your child's MENTAL HEALTH MATTERS. Remember that the school website signposts key mental health websites - all useful and just a click of a button away.
Every little helps!
If you need someone to talk with, there is help out there.
Remember also that the school has a Family Support Worker (Maria) - only a phone call away.
