Children’s Mental Health Week 2022
Monday 7 – Sunday 13 February was Children’s Mental Health week.
The theme of this year’s Children’s Mental Health Week was Growing Together.
Growing Together is about growing emotionally and finding ways to help each other grow. Challenges and setbacks can help us to grow and adapt and trying new things can help us to move beyond our comfort zone into a new realm of possibility and potential. However, emotional growth is often a gradual process that happens over time, and sometimes we might feel a bit ‘stuck’.
1 in 6 children and young people have a diagnosable mental health problem, and many more struggle with challenges from bullying to bereavement.
At Woodlands, the children took part in a range of activities throughout the week, talking about mental health and wellbeing and raising money for the Place 2 Be Mental Health charity. Take a look!
