Children's Mental Health Week - 9th February 2024

The theme for this year's Children's Mental Health week is 'My Voice Matters.'

In Class F we learnt about how it is important to listen carefully to each other's voices.

We started by playing the whisper game - a sentence was passed around the class circle. - "The rain is pouring down" we whispered the message to the person next to us. We were surprised when the last person said what they heard "it is knocking on the window!!!" We then discussed what we need to do to help us listen really well - Look at the person who is talking and focus our attention.

We then made string telephones with a partner and sent messages down the phone to each other. We found it was important to take in turns being the listener and the talker and that it worked better if the string is tight.
