Children's Mental Health Week - Let's Get Muddy!

Friday 9th February saw the children come in to school with wellies, towels and a change of clothes as we explored and celebrated how liberating it can be to get muddy on purpose! This was all in aid of getting in touch with our well-being and to discover fresh ways to feel good about ourselves. The rain of the previous few days meant there was no shortage of mud! Miss Louise prepared our mud play area and filled up the mud bath. Year 5 enjoyed, quite literally, taking a bath. Other experiences for the children included making mud sculptures, sliding on the school field, mud painting, decorating trees trunks with mud faces and of course face painting. Several children were heard exclaiming, 'This is the best day ever!'
