Reaching high for the best for your child

Children's Mental Health Week Activities - Day Five

Friday, 5 February 2021

I can't believe that today is the last day of Children's Mental Health week! It has been a super week and it has been so lovely to hear from the teachers about all of the fantastic things you have been doing to complete your jigsaw pieces. Well done to you all for having such a POSITIVE week. Please remember that looking after your mental health is something you should do EVERY DAY and not just this week. It is incredibly important that we all look after ourselves and each other. Here are my activities for Friday:

Physical - I went for a great walk in the fresh air with my friend (we were very sensible and were socially distanced). I'm sure lots of you recognise this lovely smiling face, it's Mrs Lewis from Year 5.

Give Back - I have decided to write a letter to my Nan who lives a long way away from me. She is very old and by herself and (even though I call her lots) I know she will appreciate a letter telling her about everything I am getting up to.

Self-care - Tonight has been declared reading night for me. I have already got my most comfortable cushions on an armchair and have warned the rest of my family not to disturb me because it will be time for just me and my book. Bliss! I know that the other Year 6 teachers are also doing the same this weekend as we are huge fans of reading and can't get enough of it!

I hope you all have a relaxing weekend full of positivity!
