Dear Parent/Carer

Children’s Mental Health Week – 7–11 February 2022

The Westminster School will be taking part in Children’s Mental Health Week during 7 -11 February. This will shine a spotlight on the importance of children and young people’s mental health, helping to ensure that every child has easy access to mental health support whenever they may need it.

Pupils will be carrying out different activities during Form Time to help better their understanding of mental health and to learn to support each other.

Additionally, on 11 February, we will be hosting a ‘Dress to Express’ fundraising day where we will encourage pupils to use clothing and colour to express themselves. This could be dressing as your favourite superhero or simply wearing your favourite outfit – anything to that makes you smile and reflects your personality.

If you would like to make a small voluntary donation for ‘Dress to Express’ Day via our JustGiving link (https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/the-westminster-school2),  all proceeds will be going to Place2Be which is a children’s mental health charity supporting pupils, families and staff in UK schools.

Yours faithfully

G Goulding
Class Teacher
