I have been so impressed by all the children who have entered the NJS Mental Health Week competition. Here are some of the entries – these are all great examples of how to look after your own mental health, as well as supporting the wellbeing of your friends and families!

Here is the link to our NJS Wellbeing page on the website. As this week is Mental Health Awareness Week, why not have a look? Here you will find lots of information about what we get up to in school regarding wellbeing and mental health, as well as some useful links.
Here is a sneak peak of the prizes for the Mental Health Week competition! For a chance at winning, send Mrs Wheat an email with a message or a photo showing me what you’ve done over the last week to mark Mental Health Week. Some ideas could be going for a walk, enjoying a hobby, supporting someone who is lonely, spending quality time with a friend. Send entries to megan.wheat@taw.org.uk by Friday 13th.
Year 3 have been busy at Beech’s Base 🙂
Our theme has been plants – linking to our Science inside the classroom.
We have worked hard doing lots of gardening; preparing areas for growing seeds replanting bluebells and even picked Nettles to make soup with. (This went down better than expected 🙂 !!)
In the Creativitree Area we used our artistic skills to create artwork of Tulips with sticks and forks!
We also looked at the life cycle of a flowering plant and recreated the cycle with natural items we found around Beech’s Base.
Next week is National Mental Health Awareness Week. We are celebrating this at NJS this week. Today children had a special assembly – they learnt about and discussed what mental health is, and why and how to look after their mental health.
We also discussed the theme of National Mental Health Awareness Week this year – loneliness – and how this can affect someone’s mental health and wellbeing.
We are running a competition to mark the awareness week – details here…
