Time to Talk Day reminded us that saying β€˜I’m fine’ isn’t always the whole story. Talking about how we feel helps us look after our mental health and support one another. We all have mental health, and open conversations make a difference. Let’s keep talking. #TimeToTalk #MentalHealthMatters

The School of Achievement group have started their second activity for National 2 PE, Archery. We focused on safety, rules and posture this week and used our numeracy skills to total up any points we were able to get. We even had some staff stop by to see what we were doing and give it a go.
