There has been lots of talk and a number of learning activities about children’s mental health this week and about how important it is to feel connected to others and to value those things which connect us. In Year 1, children created 'Let's Connect' paperchains. Each child decorated a strip of paper with words and images celebrating how they connect with their friends, family and wider community. We acted as a team to stick our ideas together and discussed how, to best work, the chain required all of us and that each link was as important as the next.
