Mental Health awareness week





During mental health awareness week KS2 had an assembly to discuss what 'finding our brave' is really about.
Here are some of the keys messages that the children thought of:

  • Being brave during tough times doesn’t mean holding it all in, not crying or pretending you are OK.
  • Being brave during tough times doesn’t mean holding it all in, not crying or pretending you are OK.
  • Being brave can also mean you have a go at something new. This could be joining a new sports club or learning a new skill.
  • Being brave can also mean saying ‘no’ to something that isn’t good for our physical or mental health.
  • It can also mean stepping outside of your comfort zone and challenging yourself.
The children have been reflecting upon this phrase all week and have produced some fantastic work in classes to support this very important event.
