MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS WEEK
Also, the pupils in Year 3 and 5 took part in a brilliant Yoga session, with a focus on balance and connecting with one’s inner self. Working together to support each other in various yoga poses emphasised the idea of connection, teamwork, and trust- building. The Dulwich Mile – a one mile walk around the perimeter of the College campus – highlighted the positive effects of being outdoors and connecting with nature, as well as building a greater appreciation for the hard work that our grounds staff do make our campus such an aesthetically pleasing place to be.
n Mental Health Awareness week provided an opportunity for all of us to think about the value of the communities that we are all part of, helping the pupils to better understand that being part of a safe, positive community is key for their mental health and wellbeing. The week began with Rev Buckler’s assembly and the pupils’ Wellbeing lessons throughout the week focussed on the theme of communities: how we thrive when we have strong relationships with others and how these environments give us a greater sense of purpose.
