The 5th of February 2024 marks the beginning of Children’s Mental Health Week. We are taking this opportunity to encourage children to start conversations about mental health and the factors that can affect it.
At St. Mary & All Saints CE Primary School, we want every pupil to feel comfortable to speak about their mental health, no matter how big or how small the issue, and to help end the negative stigma that can surround the topic.
This year’s theme is “My Voice Matters”. Our pupils will be taking part in various activities which highlight this theme throughout the week.
We take care to support all our pupils with any mental health issues they might have and encourage them to seek help when they need it. You can find plenty of resources for parents and carers here should you wish to continue the conversation about mental health at home: https://www.childrensmentalhealthweek.org.uk/families/
