Supporting Children’s Mental Health Week 2023

We’re supporting Children’s Mental Health Week across Hydesville this week with a range of lessons and activities to put a spotlight on the important topic of mental health.

Children’s Mental Health Week is organised every year by the Place2Be charity.  This year’s theme is Let’s Connect, to encourage children and adults to look at how we can make meaningful connections.  Healthy connections can support our mental wellbeing.

Our Senior School wellbeing lead, Mrs Dhadda, along with the Year 9 Wellbeing Ambassadors, kick started the week with an assembly which looked at how kindness can help us to feel connected and how being kind helps our own wellbeing as well as helping others.

Mrs Dhadda will also be sharing daily short videos throughout the week with Senior School form groups to help raise awareness of the importance of mental health and wellbeing.
