St Mary's CofE Primary School
We love. We learn. We flourish.
Children's Mental Health Week 2026
From the 9th to the 15th February 2026, it is a Place2Be's Children's Mental Health Week.
Here at St Mary's, we will be using Friday 13th February to explore their theme of 'This is my place.'
On their website, this theme is explained as, ‘feeling like you’re a part of something, such as your family, your school, your group of friends or a team. These happy moments help us feel connected, valued, and accepted. When we feel like we belong, we feel happy, safe, and ready to learn and play. It helps us grow strong in our minds and bodies, and it makes it easier to make friends, do well in school, and feel good about ourselves.’
The children will take part in lots of activities that help them to celebrate their sense of belonging and better understand their thoughts, feelings and behaviours in relation to different emotions.
