Welbourn CE Primary School
Wellbeing and Mental Health
At Welbourn CE Primary School we create a positive culture for Mental Wellbeing.
We are proud to announce that we are a myHappymind Bronze Accredited school!
This means that as a school we consider the mental health and wellbeing of our children as one of our top priorities. We have created a whole school culture that helps build our children's resilience, confidence and self esteem as well as teaching them how to self regulate in those stressful times.
MyHappy Mind
MyHappymind is an award-winning programme that is grounded in neuroscience and scientific research. It is a preventative programme designed to support the development of good mental health habits, resilience and self-esteem. It has been commissioned by the NHS.
There are 5 Modules which will take place throughout the year:
Meet Your Brain - Meet Team HAP! Team HAP helps children learn all about 3 key parts of their brain: the hippocampus, the amygdala and the pre-frontal cortex.
Celebrate - children build self-esteem by learning all about their character strengths
Appreciate - children are supported to develop an attitude of gratitude which has a proven, positive impact on mental wellbeing
Relate - children learn to improve their listening skills so that they are better able to communicate and understand each other
Engage - children will build resilience through setting and achieving goals.
In The Early Years, we use these characters to help teach the same content throughout the year.
