This week was 8SW's assembly on Children’s Mental Health week, where the theme is “Your Voice Matters”.

The class talked about how Samuel Laycock school helps their mental health and what mental health means to them.

They thought about things they might do to support their own mental health like listening to music, playing a game or spending some time by themselves.

Children’s Mental Health week 2024 aims to make children feel empowered, feel they can use their voice and celebrate their achievements.

The class asked everyone to think about what they could do to support their own mental health using the ideas and to always be proud of their achievements, however big or small they may be!
