Who should young people trust for mental health advice online? 🤔 From TikTok to Instagram, children and young people are turning to social media for support, but not all content is accurate or helpful. This week’s #WakeUpWednesday guide explores how mental health misinformation can mislead young people and shares practical ways adults can help them spot unreliable advice and build healthy, informed understanding.

We had another everyday superhero visit us today. Mrs Hopes who is a super vet showed us lots of fantastic things.  We looked at X- rays and had to work what was in the dogs stomach and even an X-ray of puppies!

Following on from our ‘People Who Help Us’ topic, we’ve had a wonderful opportunity to meet another real life superhero! Today we welcomed Dr Williams to our classroom, he spoke about his special work as an anaesthetist within the hospital, and he kindly shared some of the medical instruments that he uses in his everyday work. The children asked some wonderful questions and many were inspired by today’s special visit. Thank you Dr Williams 🩺🥼🩻
