Year 6 - Hello Yellow Day
Today, our Year 6 children celebrated Hello Yellow Day by wearing yellow to show their support for raising awareness of mental health and reminding everyone of the importance of looking after our wellbeing. The children embraced the day brilliantly, helping to spread positivity and reinforce the message that we need to talk about how we feel and that no one should ever feel alone.
Year 1 Hello Yellow Day
Year 1 have loved celebrating Hello Yellow Day for mental health awareness day. They came dressed in bright yellow and completed some Hello Yellow colourings. They also really enjoyed the parade in worship, showing off their outfits.
Hello Yellow Day Collective Worship
This morning, Mrs Gardner, our PSHE leader, The Wellbeing Warriors, some of our Year 4 children and our Head and Deputy Head’s led a special Collective Worship in celebration of Hello Yellow Day. They raised awareness of mental health and the importance of discussing our feelings, doing the things that we love and spreading kindness. Last week, Year 4 wrote some beautiful wonder poems in celebration of National Poetry Day and they shared these with us this morning and Thorncliffe Nursing Home last week. This was a wonderful act of kindness that brought huge smiles to the resident’s faces. They set us the challenge of spreading kindness and positivity today. We all then joined with a Hello Yellow Parade with each class showing off their amazingly yellow outfits. Thank you to our wonderful school community for all of their efforts… we were a sea of yellow. We then finished our worship with a very special prayer and sing along. What a joyous worship that helped to make us all feel brighter on a wet and miserable morning! 💛✨😁
