Booking for SSN Mental Wellbeing Leaders: Friday 21st March 11.45-2:45

We will be hosting a mental health & wellbeing session for your yr 5/6 pupils with support from the sports students from the University of Cumbria, Sports Complex. It is an opportunity for pupils to work on growth mind-set, communication, teamwork, defining mental health & wellbeing and developing those all-important life skills. Hopefully, they can also then support your school’s sport and activity offer.

They will move around a series of stations with other schools and have a go at each area. Please ensure you let us know how many pupils, approximately, you plan on bringing so we can allocate groups, between 2-6 pupils from year 5/6 (1 team per school). These may be a different group to your sports leaders. Ideally, think about pupils with a
good level of maturity and empathy, or who are good communicators with staff and pupils alike.

Mental Health & Wellbeing Day- Stations would look something like:

Everyone will move around together as 1 bigger group.
