Mental Health Workshop with Primary 6

9th Feb 2023

Today we welcomed facilitators from the Reach programme to deliver a mental health awareness workshop with our Primary 6 classes.  The children enjoyed various fun and interactive activities aiming to raise awareness and understanding of how they can mind their own mental health and well-being. The focus was on building connections with friends, family and their wider community.  They shared compliments about each other and were encouraged to develop positive friendships. 🥰 Superb participation from our young learners.
