Next week we will celebrate Wellbeing Week in the school. The aim of the week is to bring a bit of fun to school life during these challenging times but also to expose students to different ways they can cater for their own mental health. There is a huge timetable of activities as well as many ongoing events. If you have any funny jokes, please share them with Mr Murray and yours might make it as the joke of the day and be called out over the intercom. The art department are also challenging us all to come up with a photo to reflect on how we have all grown in 2020. Please see the posters attached.
