Headteacher Update 7th February 2025

As you’re aware, this week has been Children’s Mental Health Week. Yesterday, the children looked wonderful in their different colours, which represented some of the different emotions all children feel and experience. With  your donations, we have so far raised £249.24!


We know how important it is that we understand what makes us tick, our likes and dislikes, strengths, fears, hopes and dreams. Our emotions play a key role in telling us just that, and being aware of how to listen to, and express ourselves, is a major part of building self-awareness. It is through knowing ourselves and speaking with others, that we can build resilience, grow and develop.


Being self-aware means getting to know and understand what we are good at, what we find difficult, our likes and dislikes, what makes us feel JOY and what may cause us SADNESS. It is also about understanding what makes us unique and our fears, hopes and dreams. It is with this basis we can form strong and healthy relationships, from early childhood right through to adulthood and are equipped to cope with the challenges that life brings our way.


By taking part in Children’s Mental Health Week 2025, we are working together to ensure that children in our school feel listened to, and know that they’re not alone. Class teachers are always available for children to talk to, but we also have a wider team of staff who are here to support all our children’s Mental Health.

Our Pupil Wellbeing Team:

Miss Brady – Wellbeing, Behaviour and Attendance Lead

Miss Evans – PSHE Lead

Mr Wilson – PE Lead

Miss Leslie- Behaviour and Wellbeing mentor

Mrs Suttle- Behaviour and Wellbeing mentor
