Tuesday the 10th October is World Mental Health Day.
Mental Health problems can affect anyone, any day of the year, the 10th of October is a great day to show your support for better mental health and start looking after your own wellbeing.
1 in 10 young people in the UK have a mental health problem, which is around 3 young people in every classroom.
Our students will be watching a video on a child with mental health problems and then discussing what advice they would give, what other mental health problems could young people experience.
They will also look at celebrities that experience mental health problems such as Justin Beiber, David Beckham, Adele, J.K Rowling to show that it can happen to anyone but also with the right help we can work towards coping with the illness and controlling it so we can get through each day.

Blessed are those who don’t have it all together
Blessed are those who have run out of strength, ideas, will power, resolve or energy
Blessed are those who ache because of how severely out of whack the world is
Blessed are those who on a regular basis have a dark day in which despair seems to be a step behind them wherever they go
Blessed are you, for God is with you
God is on your side, God meets you in that place.
