From 6-12 February 2023, schools, families and communities across the UK will take part in Children’s Mental Health Week. This year’s theme is Let’s Connect.Let’s Connect is about making meaningful connections for all,

When we have healthy connections – to family, friends and others – this can support our mental health and our sense of wellbeing. And when our need for rewarding social connections is not met, we can sometimes feel isolated and lonely – which can have a negative impact on our mental health. 

Andersen's class have taking part in different activities to help use feel connected as a class and looked at how we are all linked. As a class we created our own puzzle piece and at the end of the lesson we connected them all together to represent how we all connect

In our class we have also introduced a worry monster where if children are feeling worried they can share their feelings.

Here are some photos of what we have been up to:
