Mental Health Awareness Week

12th May 2025

This week at school, we’re recognising Mental Health Awareness Week, with a focus on the theme of community.

A strong, supportive community plays a huge role in our wellbeing. Throughout the week, we’ll be exploring this with pupils—talking about kindness, connection, and how we can all look out for one another.

We’re also sharing resources for parents and carers to help continue these conversations at home. You’ll find support and advice from:

• YoungMinds: youngminds.org.uk

• Mind: mind.org.uk

• Family Lives: familylives.org.uk

Let’s keep the conversation going at home and in school. Together, we can build a stronger, healthier community for our children.

Let’s keep supporting each other—not just this week, but every day.
