Resources for Mental Health Awareness Week

 Parents & Carers

This week is Mental Health Awareness Week.  This is an area we constantly give lots of attention to in school (in an age appropriate way), particularly over the course of the pandemic.  

Below links to a nice resource with some suggested activities that you and your child may like to do together at home. 

The theme for this year's Mental Health Awareness Week is nature.

Mini-beast Hunt

 We have been exploring our Nursery yard to find mini beasts. We found lots of them: ants, spiders, woodlice, worms and slugs. 

Germination of cress

Last week in science we planted cress seeds in different conditions. Today we have been observing the results and asking questions about them. 

The children were very surprised and intrigued that both the seeds which had been planted on breakfast cereal and those that had been kept in the dark had grown! 

 

Plants!

 This half term we are learning all about plants! We have been re-capping our Y1 knowledge of the parts of a plant and we have also started an experiment to see what conditions plants need in order to grow the best. We are really enjoying it! At the end of the half term we will be writing some advice for others on how to look after a garden. Could you find out what plants you have at home? Maybe you could draw your plant and explain how you look after it?
