Just like everyone has a body, everyone has mental health. It’s not just about mental illness. When children have good levels of wellbeing it helps them to learn and explore the world, feel, express and manage positive and negative emotions and form and maintain good relationships.
At All Saints', we are committed to supporting the wellbeing of everyone in our school community. This page provides information and resources to help support our families.
We are delighted to announce that All Saints CE Primary School has achieved the required criteria to be awarded the Calderdale Healthy Schools Bronze Award. This shows that we have met all criteria of Focus on Mental Health, Physical Activity, Food and Nutrition and Emotional Wellbeing to provide a learning curriculum and environment that promotes health and wellbeing.
