Mental Health Awareness Activity Week

Our J5 Pupil Ambassadors have thoughtfully designed and produced a promotional film to launch the St Peter’s 8-13 Mental Health Awareness Activity Week, organised by the 8-13 Teaching & Learning Staff Group.  

Pupils at St Peter’s 8-13 have engaged with Mental Health Awareness Week in their form times and assemblies from 5 to 9 October. This will be followed by a week of activities from Monday 12 to Friday 17 October.  

During the Activity Week, pupils will learn meditation techniques, interpretive dance, Zentangle art, yoga, Tai Chi and mindfulness, and the pupils will be encouraged to talk and think about their bodies, surroundings, feelings, emotions, achievements and goals. 

Mental Health Awareness activities will also be incorporated into the curriculum, with art therapy sessions in Art and Design, music therapy sessions in Music lessons and additional well-being strategies in Sports lessons.
