Express Yourself - Primary Group Activities.pdf

Children’s Mental Health Week free assembly at 9am on Monday 1st February on the theme of the week - ‘Express Yourself’. Children’s Mental Health Week runs next month from 1st-7th February, and this year it’s even more essential than ever to make sure pupils are supported with the disruption, uncertainty and isolation that many of them have faced recently. We’re really proud to be working alongside the incredible charities Place2Be and BAFTA Kids to bring you a free assembly at 9am on Monday 1st February on the theme of the week - ‘Express Yourself’.After the success of Oak’s series of special assemblies during the first school closures, it’s an honour to be hosting this one-off assembly to gather schools and families in our virtual ‘school hall’ and provide an easy way to bring the nation's children together with a positive message about the power of creative self-expression. Famous faces and contributors will also be taking part live from their homes - so it’s not to be missed!
