Mrs Graves (Head of English)

As part of our focus in form time on different ways to promote wellbeing, 10FFG have been creating a display based around self-care and connection with others. Taking Valentine’s Day as inspiration, we decided to use pink and red hearts to share things that we can celebrate about ourselves (or ways in which we could take time to appreciate and value ourselves) and things that we want to celebrate about others in the form.

This was a lovely activity as it encouraged students to think positively and exhibit self-confidence, but was also an opportunity to develop new bonds and connections within the form. The display that has been produced is a great addition to the classroom, and the positive air it brings to the learning environment is beneficial for all the students who work in there. It’s a great reminder of the kindness and compassion within our community!
