Home School Partnership Learning

Children’s Mental Health Week will take place from 5-11 February 2024. The theme this year is ‘My Voice Matters’.

We want to empower children of all ages, backgrounds and abilities to work together to create a positive change for their mental health and wellbeing. 

Encourage your child to create an art work which will help to them to think about, and share, what matters to them.
