Beat the Blues Week

News - 15th Jan 2024

We’re away! “Beat the Blues” week has started and we’re off to a flier! Staff have compiled a “Beat the Blues” playlist which has been playing at break and lunch today. These are songs that have put a smile on our face and we hope that they make you smile too!

Over the course of the week, students will be set alternative homework in each of their subjects. Each challenge is designed to promote positive mental health and wellbeing in a subject-specific context.

Each day we’ll be sharing the challenges with you and today we want to challenge you to listen to an inspiring TED talk (www.ted.com). 

Finally, advanced notice that we’ll be having a non-school uniform day on Friday to bring our “Beat the Blues” week to a close. In exchange for a suggested minimum donation of £1, students may wear their own clothes. Money raised will go towards sponsoring 10 young people in Uganda to enable them to receive an education and the charity Young Minds, who provide mental health support to young people and their parents. 

Love from St.Peter’s
