On 10th October 2025, children across all year groups at Nettlesworth Primary School came together to raise awareness for World Mental Health Day, looking at the effects of fake news and doom scrolling on mental health.

Throughout the day, pupils engaged in a variety of thoughtful and creative activities designed to promote emotional wellbeing, empathy, and kindness:

• The whole school began the day with calming breathing exercises and guided mindfulness sessions to help children understand how to manage worries and emotions.
• In classes pupils took part in open discussions about mental health, learning how to talk about feelings and support one another. Teachers used age-appropriate stories and scenarios to spark meaningful conversations.
• EYFS and KS1 explored picture books that promote emotional literacy, while KS2 students reflected on real-life stories of resilience and mental health advocacy.

The day was a beautiful reminder that mental health matters every day, and that even small acts of kindness and understanding can make a big difference. We are incredibly proud of our pupils for their compassion, creativity, and commitment to making our school a safe and supportive space for all.

Chloe has been making some lovely artwork at home, inspired by our artist of the half term ‘Kandinsky’. It is so lovely to see children completing artwork at home, as well as school. Well done Chloe!
