Children’s Mental Health Awareness Week. 7th – 13th February

This leaflet provides simple advice and guidance to parents and carers about how to make conversations about your child's feelings part of everyday conversation.

The leaflet, which was created alongside the Talking Mental Health Animation & Toolkit (https://www.annafreud.org/schools-and-colleges/resources/talking-mental-health-animation-teacher-toolkit/) features an introduction from our Patron, Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Cambridge who supported the 'You're never too young to talk mental health' campaign stating the campaign's resources "demonstrate how we can help children express their feelings, respond appropriately, and prevent small problems from snowballing into bigger ones."

** Please note**
On Friday 11th February, we will be raising money for the Children’s Society (we usually raise money for this charity through our Christingle service, but due to Covid restrictions, this has not been possible this year). The Children’s Society provide specialist support that empowers young people to make positive changes and rediscover their hope.
We are asking children to come to school on Friday in rainbow colours; multi-coloured clothes, wearing rainbows or choosing a colour of the rainbow (no football kits please) in exchange for a donation to be made to the Children’s Society via the following link:
