Children's Mental Health Week – "This Is My Place" When it was Children's Mental Health Week, our children took part in a special activity to celebrate, led by the wonderful charity Place2Be. The theme this year, "This Is My Place", encouraged children to think about belonging the people, places and activities that help them feel safe, valued and connected. The children created their own beautiful and imaginative Belonging Maps, exploring: Places that feel like home Spaces in school where they feel confident Activities they love Friendships that make them smile Outdoor spaces where they feel calm And even the ways they belong within themselves From islands shaped like hearts to magical lands filled with books, football pitches, stages and starry skies, every map was completely unique just like the children who created them. Through this activity, pupils reflected on important questions such as: Where would I most like to be on my map today? How could I help someone else feel like they belong? We are so proud of the thoughtful conversations, creativity and kindness shown throughout the week. #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek #ThisIsMyPlace #Belonging #WellbeingMatters
