All children and staff joined in with the National Mental Health Day on Friday by wearing a splash of yellow to help raise awareness and to also celebrate our recent Mental Health Gold Award! 

#HelloYellow is a campaign led by Young Minds. Who are Young Minds? “We’re the UK’s leading charity fighting for children and young people’s mental health. We want to see a world where no young person feels alone with their mental health, and all young people get the mental health support they need, when they need it, no matter what.” (Find out more here).

Through this campaign and the wide range of activities that the children took part in – from reception to year 6 – we are hoping it will raise their awareness of the importance of looking after our Mental Health and become comfortable using a range of coping strategies when required. Here are some of the activities that were taking place. A huge thank you to the staff, parents and children for taking part.
