Children's Mental Health Week

In our recent Children's Mental Health Week, we linked the overall national theme of 'This is my place' with learning about 'myHappymind Places'.  During this week, the children deepened their recognition and understanding of their own and others' emotions.  We also explored different self-regulation strategies that could help should we feel some big emotions and our 'Team HAP' is not working as well as we would like.  In addition, we reflected on the power of belonging and feeling connected, and created some stunning 'belonging bunting' to represent our thoughts.  The beautiful creative balloon homework certainly brought our learning together - there were lots of brilliant creations that also reflected some of the strategies we can use to help us on our way.
