Children's Mental Health Week - Art Workshop

"In a time when the world feels fragile, let’s give our pupils the tools to build resilience and find a moment of peace and joy through their own creativity."

Sinead from the Art and Design Workshop ran a live, online workshop with our P3 - P5 class yesterday morning.  Art is often the first subject lost to a busy schedule. Ironically, it is the most powerful tool we have for pupil wellbeing. Purposeful Art & Design allows children to step away from the noise of the world, regulate their emotions, and find their "flow."

The workshop was designed to give pupils a meaningful "breathing space" through the vibrant “This is My Place” theme.  The children really enjoyed interacting with Sinead and taking time to paint their own pictures.
