Welcome to our Children's Mental Health Week page. Throughout the week we will be participating in various activities in school. We wanted to provide you with access to resources to help at home, so below are links and stories that could support you. As always, if you need something in particular or you need a friendly ear, please do come and speak to us at school.

Parent Support
Have a look at some of the things you could try at home this week (and other weeks too) to promote positive mental health at home too.
Feelings
Let's talk about feelings! Feelings are a vital part of being a person, and they are important things to think about. Children need to talk so that they understand their feelings.
Art Therapy
Expression through art is a great way to explore emotions. Take a look on 'Learn more' to find ideas to try at home.
Story Time
Ruby's Worry by Tom Percival is a beautiful story about how you should always talk about your worries so that they don't get too big!
Story Time
Rowan loves the river; it’s just like he is. On some days, it’s quiet and calm, on others it’s light and playful, and then there are the days when it roars along, wild and angry. But when Rowan goes through a particularly difficult winter, the river freezes – just like Rowan. Can Rowan find a way to release his frozen feelings, and allow the river to flow freely once more?
Story Time
One day, Colour Monster wakes up feeling very confused. His emotions are all over the place; he feels angry, happy, calm, sad and scared all at once! To help him, a little girl shows thim what each feeling means through colour.
Story Time
