This week, 1D have been learning all about Mental Health Week and how important it is to take care of both our minds and our bodies.

We talked about the different things that help us to feel happy, calm, and healthy. The children shared lots of wonderful ideas such as spending time with family and friends, playing outside, getting enough sleep, eating healthy foods, and talking to someone when we feel worried or upset.

We celebrated Wear Green Day, and the children looked fantastic dressed in green to show their support for Mental Health Week.

We read stories about feelings and emotions, helping us to understand that all feelings are important and that it is okay to ask for help when we need it.

Taking care of our mental health is something we can practise every day, and Year 1 have learned lots of simple ways to keep their minds and bodies healthy and strong.

We finished our theme of the disgusting sandwich this week by first making a very tasty cheese sandwich and then a very disgusting sandwich!

First the tasty sandwich….

And then a very disgusting one!
