It is mental health awareness week from 15th to 21st May, with a focus on anxiety. To raise awareness within school, we are going to share a range of breathing techniques over the week to embed strategies to combat feelings of anxiety. The children will also be encouraged to share their own techniques they use with others at school and at home. During the week in our PSHE sessions, we will be focusing on who, what and where we feel safe, calm and happy, and how we can lower our anxiety.
