This afternoon we held our first meeting of our Student Council where we were joined by Hardeesh Pull a Education Mental Health Practitioner. She came to work with us on our ideas for Hello Yellow which we are exploring this week in our PSHE lessons. Our focus is on supporting our understanding of our mental health by identifying some of the different feelings and emotions we have and feel. Our challenge is to go back to our classes and work with our friends on developing some new emojis to describe feelings we may have as sometimes explaining how we feel is easier through pictures than words.

We will be meeting again on Friday to share what we have learnt and using some examples of the emojis generated to display on our ‘ working wall’.
