Mental Health Awareness

This week at the Learning Centre we have been raising our awareness of Mental Health.

Here is what some groups have been up to…

• Mr Blackmans group have supported mental health week by making kindness cards for all the staff in the Learning Centre. The students made and decorated cards and then put a good deed message inside each card. The student’s handed these out to each class and asked the class to carry out each good deed.

  

  

• Miss Kindon’s group found the conversation starter cards very interesting.  Some of the cards were light-hearted and some were more serious topics. The staff agreed that the group had some good discussions.

  

  

• Mrs Keane’s group talked about positive affirmations, they then wrote their own and put them up on the walls around the Learning Centre.  Positive affirmations help people to replace negative self-talk with positive self-talk.
