Year 6 are now our Mental Health Ambassadors
On Wednesday 25th February, year 6 completed their final day of training with Normal Magic. They have spent two full days learning about how important mental health and wellbeing is and how to ensure their seesaws stay balanced.
During these days, they looked at the brain - the 'thinking' and 'emotional' parts - and how these parts of the brain affect how we're thinking and feeling. They explored different types of listeners, and which is the best to get the help you need. And, most importantly, explored ways - using their 7 senses and '10 A Day' - to balance their physical and mental health.
Their learning culminated with them presenting all they had learnt in a whole school assembly. The assembly was filled with creative ways to present the information, including posters, acting, and audience participation. They were absolutely fantastic and should be very proud of themselves! All of the year 6 children are now Mental Health Ambassadors for Lifton Primary Academy - well done!
