The theme for Children’s Mental Health Week 2026 was “This is My Place”, highlighting the importance of children feeling a strong sense of belonging at home, in school and within their wider community. The focus encouraged pupils to reflect on their own identity, build resilience and recognise the value of supportive relationships.
After thoughtful class discussions and exploring the excellent resources on the CMHW website, pupils created posters showing the places, people and activities that help them feel grounded and connected. Their designs showcased wonderful creativity and personal insight.
