Action Mental Health 'Healthy Me' Award
5th Jan 2017
We are very proud to have been recognised by Action Mental Health for our work in piloting 'Healthy Me!'
“Healthy Me” is a vibrant and engaging mental health promotion programme aimed at children which explores emotional/mental health, healthy lifestyle choices and pathways to effective support through imaginative and interactive play and song.
Healthy Me positively promotes mental health and social and emotional wellbeing in children and has a strong focus on prevention and self-help.
The programme enables early identification of children experiencing mental distress, supports the transition from primary to secondary school and most importantly, encourages people to think about their own mental health needs.
Our P6 and P7 pupils will undertake further work within the 'Healthy Me' programme later this term. If you want to learn more about thier work or how you can help, check out the website link on the right!
