Cledford Primary SchoolMental Wellbeing
Top tips for positive mental health and well-being:
1) Make some time to do a fun and relaxing activity that you enjoy, every day.
2) Talking.
Children at Chidlren Primary School know that there is always an adult in school with a listening ear. Talking about our worries, usually makes us feel a little lighter.
3) Self help.
Think about healthy diet, regular excercise, sticking to daily routines.
4) Research.
We would advise parents to do their own research about mental health and well-being at the first signs of concerns:
Live Well: a list of services in Cheshire East
NSPCC is the UK's leading children's charity, preventing abuse and helping those affected to recover.
My Mind: NHS website run by CWP CAMHS. This site has been developed for everyone interested in the mental health and well being of young people.
Charlie Waller Memorial Trustt: a good source of information around anxiety and depression.
Childline has some brilliant relaxing games and mindfulness activities for children.
If parents have ongoing worries about their child's mental health and well-being, please speak to your child's class teacher.
Alternatively, Mrs Plimmer is always available.
