Hello Yellow- Friday 9th October

 Hello Yellow – Friday 9th October

Wear yellow and help us show our support for young people’s mental health.

On Friday 9th October, we’re inviting our whole school community to wear yellow as we take part in Hello Yellow – a day dedicated to raising awareness, starting conversations and supporting young people’s mental health.

Mental health is something that can affect all of us. There are times when life can feel difficult, overwhelming or challenging and it isn’t always easy to know how to cope or who to talk to. For some young people, getting the right support at the right time can feel especially difficult.

Together, we can help change this.

By wearing yellow, you can help start conversations about mental health and remind young people that they are not alone, that it’s okay to talk and that support is available.

 Stand out. Start a conversation. Show your support.

Join us on Friday 9th October, wear something yellow!

Together, we can help create a school community where every young person feels heard, supported and valued.

Computing

We have shown great resilience this afternoon in our first computing lesson. We have had to log on individually and go onto BBC Bitesize Typing Game to practice how to type properly. We found it tricky to not just use one finger but we have persevered and have really enjoyed the game. Lots of us want to practice at home so here is a link to the website:
