World Mental Health Day
On Thursday 10th October 2024 it was World Mental Health Day. The Wellbeing Champions decided to support YoungMinds, a mental health charity, by taking part in Hello Yellow. The idea is that we can make the day a little bit brighter by wearing something yellow.
Right now, the world is a really tough place for children and young people to grow up in. YoungMinds want young people to know that they don’t have to go through this alone. Things can be better.
Every pound raised helps YoungMinds continue to work towards creating a world where no young person feels alone with their mental health.
On Thursday 10th October everyone at Hamstel Infant School and Nursery wore something yellow to help raise money for young people’s mental health. Together we raised £218.45.
Throughout the day the children took part in some mindfulness activities. Mindfulness is all about being present in the moment and paying attention to your thoughts and feelings without judgement. It's a great way to improve your mental wellbeing, and it's something that everyone can benefit from.
Making mental health a priority every day will help to create a positive school environment that supports the mental health and wellbeing of everyone in the community.
