Mental Health and Wellbeing

At Divine Saviour we care for and develop the whole child educationally, emotionally, spiritually, morally and physically. As well as caring for their education we also care for their mental health and wellbeing and feel that it is essential to provide children with information to enable them to make life long, well informed decisions about their  health.

We are taking part in Place2Be’s Children’s Mental Health Week. This year’s theme is Growing Together. Place2Be has created activities and resources to help children (and adults) to explore the different ways that they can share their thoughts, feelings and ideas. There are lots of resources on the Children’s Mental Health Week website that you can use with your child at home; including activity ideastips for parents and carers, and an online assembly which will be available from Monday 1st February. Visit childrensmentalhealthweek.org.uk to find out more!
