This year’s theme, for Mental Health Awareness week, is anxiety. Many of us can experience feelings of anxiety at times in our lives, for different reasons. It’s a normal emotion yet feels different for everyone. For many children and young people, pressure during exam season can lead to feelings of anxiety and stress, which can be challenging for their mental health.
Congratulations to our former student, netballing ace, Geva Mentor who has been named in the England squad for the upcoming Netball World Cup in July. The tournament being hosted by South Africa will be an incredible 6th world cup for Geva!
Did you know that we have offered Music Therapy at St Peter's for 3 years, with the help of Nordoff-Robbins? Over that time (and most amazingly, online throughout lockdowns!) we have been able to offer Music Therapy to SEN Students, Looked After Students, Adopted students, Students who have suffered bereavements, as well as students with a variety of mental health issues.
