  • Mental Health Week

    Mon 13 Feb 2023

    Every day during the week 13th - 17th February, our children took part in positive mental health activities. 

    Beginning each day with a new theme, the children had the opportunity to discuss and explore strategies to support with positive mental health. 

     

    Our School Council launched this special week with a whole school assembly to introduce the themes we would learn about this week, including: 

    • Thought catching and thought swapping;
    • Managing our big feelings; 
    • Laughology;
    • Music Matters;
    • Seeing the extraordinary in the ordinary.

     

    The week was planned so that there was, hopefully, something for everyone. We know that as we are all individuals, not every activity/strategy may be the one for us. However, there will be something that we enjoy and benefit from. 

  • Safer Internet Day

    Tue 07 Feb 2023

    On Tuesday 7th February our school joined schools across the globe to celebrate Safer Internet Day 2023.

     

    Safer Internet Day is a campaign to promote the safe and responsible use of technology, which calls on young people, parents, carers, teachers, social workers, law enforcement, companies, policymakers and more, to join together in helping to create a better internet.

     

    Using the internet safely and positively is a key message that we promote at Walsall Wood School and celebrating Safer Internet Day is a great opportunity for us to re-emphasise the online safety messages we deliver throughout the year.

     

    Our Key Stage 2 Digital Leaders have worked with staff across the school to deliver an assembly, an afternoon of activities and lessons that help to educate our pupils about online safety.

     

    You can continue to celebrate the messages from this day by continuing the conversation at home. To help you with this, you may be interested in downloading the free Safer Internet Day Resources for Parents and Carers which is available at:

     

    saferinternet.org.uk/sid-parents.

     

    There are top tips, quizzes, and films which you can use at home with your child.
