Hello Yellow – World Mental Health Day

Dear parents and carers,
Our school will be taking part in Hello Yellow on Friday 10th October (World
Mental Health Day) to raise awareness and funds for YoungMinds, the UK’s
leading charity for young people’s mental health.
No young person should feel alone with their mental health and that’s why
Hello Yellow matters. We’re taking this opportunity as a school community to
come together and show our students that we’re with them and they’re never
alone with their mental health.

We’ll be taking part by wearing YELLOW on Friday 10th October.

You can also donate to support our school’s fundraising YoungMinds – Myddle CE Primary School

Most importantly, we want to share the resources which YoungMinds offer to
support parents and carers if you ever need help and advice to support your
children. This includes:
• online resources (www.youngminds.org.uk/parent/)
• a phone line, open 9.30am-4pm (0808 802 5544)
• an online chat for parents and carers to speak to trained
professionals if you’re concerned about your children’s mental
health (www.youngminds.org.uk/parents-helpline/)

 

Our school’s Christian Values

Dear Parents/Carers,

At Myddle, our Christian values guide and inspire us each day. This half term, we are focusing on the value of Compassion—showing kindness and care towards others, understanding their feelings, and acting with love and empathy in all that we do.

Through our worship, lessons, and daily interactions, we will encourage children to reflect on compassion by:

– Learning from the example of Jesus and other inspiring figures who showed care and love for others.
– Celebrating acts of kindness, empathy, and support within our school community.
– Encouraging children to listen, understand, and respond to the needs and feelings of others.

We invite you to join us in exploring this value at home by discussing the importance of compassion and recognising moments when your child demonstrates it in their daily life. Please see the link below for some helpful ideas of how you can explore this value at home.

Thank you for your continued support in nurturing our school’s Christian ethos.

Online Safety

In today’s digital world, children have greater access to technology than ever before. While the internet offers many educational and social benefits, it’s essential to ensure that children stay safe online. We teach our students about the importance of staying safe online and the lasting impact their digital footprint can have on their future. However, we greatly appreciate the support you provide at home in reinforcing these vital lessons.

We encourage you to:
✅ Monitor your child’s online activity – Know what apps, games, and websites they are using.
✅ Set parental controls – Use filters and privacy settings to protect them from inappropriate content.
✅ Encourage open conversations – Talk to your child about online dangers, including cyberbullying and speaking to strangers.
✅ Promote safe habits – Teach them to use strong passwords, avoid sharing personal information, and think before they post.

For more information on keeping your child safe online, we have compiled a selection of parent guides covering key topics such as age ratings, gaming, popular apps, and managing screen time. You can access these resources on our Online Safety page here: https://myddleschool.org.uk/home/parents-area/handbook/online-safety/

We appreciate your support in helping to create a safe and responsible online environment for our children.
