Wellbeing and Mental Health Awareness

Welcome to our school’s well-being page!

We want to ensure that pupils, parents and staff can easily access resources to support their well-being.

There are numerous links to advice and tips that cover many aspects of mental health. Therefore, we have selected a range of resources to direct you to the appropriate support to help your children and family. We recognise that emotional health and wellbeing has a significant impact on everyone’s lives. Hence, during the current climate, the element of uncertainty and change to usual routine has been unsettling for many.

As a result, you may find yourself dealing with different behaviours or want to know how you can help the people around you. These resources can help you in: supporting anxiety, calming techniques; tips to support mental health and support services.

As a school, we aim to help our community by understanding how we can maintain and look after our well-being so please don’t forget that we are available via the Year Group emails as well as the usual school contact number to help you with any concerns you have regarding wellbeing. We hope the following links provide quick access to clear advice.

#HelloYellow

A sea of yellow entered our gates here at Preston Primary for World Mental Health Day. Aiming to raise awareness for the importance of looking after pupils' mental health, we decided to raise money for the charity YoungMinds with a #HelloYellow event. Spreading positivity, we discussed why we should talk about how we feel and motivating our peers. Every class made their own contribution, including; learning calming meditation methods, sharing what helps lift our moods, some fun photoshoots and much more!

We hope our #HelloYellow day reminded our children all to continue to be kind to one another and keep positive about the future going forward.

We raised a FANTASTIC £373.82 for the wonderful charity.
