‘Dress to Express’
Children’s Mental Health Week 1st – 7th February 2021
From 1st – 7th February 2021, school will be taking part in Place2Be’s Children’s Mental Health Week.
This year’s theme is Express Yourself. Place2Be has created activities and resources to help children (and adults) to explore the different ways that they can share their thoughts, feelings and ideas.
Our Home Learning and Key Worker lessons will include activities promoting well being and there are lots of resources on the Place2Be website that you can use with your child at home too.
On Friday 5th February, we would like to invite all children, at home and in school, to ‘Dress to Express’.
This could be through favourite colours, hairstyles, favourite sports kits, fancy dress, party clothes…whatever your child wants to wear as an expression of themselves. Be as creative as you like and do share in with our online sessions so that we can celebrate each and every one of you.
