My Happy Mind
At Anderton Primary School, we use ‘My Happy Mind’ to help create a positive mental well-being culture in which children build resilience, self-esteem, and character. My Happy Mind, which is endorsed by the NHS, uses the latest research, science, and technology to help children develop lifelong habits and learn to thrive.
My Happy Mind is taught across the whole school in weekly sessions, and consists of 5 units:
1. Meet Your Brain – Learning about how our brains work.
2. Celebrate – Understanding our character strengths and celebrating ourselves.
3. Appreciate – Developing gratitude as a habit.
4. Relate – Building positive relationships.
5. Engage – Engaging with the world.
My Happy Mind is all based around helping children to understand how their brain works and to support them in developing positive skills and habits to be their very best selves!
Our Awards
We are proud to announce that we are a myHappymind Silver Accredited school!
This means that as a school we consider the mental health and wellbeing of our children as one of our top priorities. We have created a whole school culture that helps build our children's resilience, confidence and self esteem as well as teaching them how to self regulate in those stressful times.
This Accreditation badge has been awarded thanks to all the effort our staff, children, governors and parents have put in to bring the lessons of myHappymind to life all around our school!
