Wellbeing
At St. Augustine’s Catholic Primary School, we use a programme called My Happy Mind to help create a positive mental wellbeing culture in which children build resilience, self-esteem, and character. My Happy Mind supports children in developing positive lifelong habits and acts as a supportive tool to calm our minds and bodies so we are ready for everyday challenges.
My Happy Mind is taught across the whole school in weekly sessions, and consists of 5 units:
Meet Your Brain – Learning about how our brains work
Celebrate – Understanding our character strengths and celebrating ourselves
Appreciate – Developing gratitude as a habit
Relate – Building positive relationships
Engage – Engaging with the world
Each one of these units is kick started with a whole school assembly on a half- termly basis.
My Happy Mind is not just a programme for school. Download the free My Happy Mind App today to embed techniques used in school and further the in-school learning of each topic.
