Mrs McClelland writes "Walton-le-Dale High School's new Wellbeing Ambassadors launched their work to promote and support wellbeing in school on Thursday by celebrating World Mental Health awareness Day. They chose to specifically recognise young people’s mental and supported the charity Young Minds https://youngminds.org.uk/ as they celebrated with #HelloYellow.
All week the Wellbeing Ambassadors did assemblies to promote Mental health awareness. On Thursday we all were encouraged to wear yellow and think about mental health as being something that we all have. Food in the canteen was yellow themed and at lunch time staff and students had fun dressing up in our photo booth.
The Wellbeing ambassadors would like to thank Mrs Ellery and Mr Cassidy for their help in making today possible and all the staff and students for taking part and making it a success.
Next term the Wellbeing ambassadors will launch "Wellbeing Wednesdays" where activities will be organised for students and staff to take part in to promote their Wellbeing."
Many thanks to everyone involved!
