Growing Together: Children’s Mental Health Week

The theme for Children’s Mental Health Week 2022 is to be “Growing Together”, with assembly, classroom and other resources now available.

Taking place on February 7 to 13 and run by children’s mental health charity Place2Be, the week-long event will encourage pupils to consider how they have grown and how they can help others to grow.

NHS figures show that around five children in every classroom have a mental health problem. Many more struggle with challenges such as bullying to bereavement.

Place2Be has published free primary and secondary resources, including assembly guides, posters, group activities and more, to help schools hold events and activities during Children’s Mental Health Week

All the resources can be adapted for use in school, home-schooling, online lessons or independent learning. They are also available in Welsh.
