At Nash Mills, we believe that every child’s mental health and emotional wellbeing are just as important as their physical health and academic success. We are committed to creating a nurturing environment where all pupils feel safe, valued, and supported.

Our Mental Health and Wellbeing page is here to show how we care for the whole child. We understand that children learn best when they feel happy, confident, and secure. That’s why we place a strong emphasis on promoting positive mental health throughout our school community.

We offer a range of support to help pupils thrive, including:

• Wellbeing check-ins and safe spaces to talk
• Mindfulness and relaxation activities integrated into the school day
• Social and emotional learning through our PSHE curriculum
• Access to trained staff who can offer guidance and support
• Workshops and assemblies focused on resilience, kindness, and self-care
• Partnerships with local mental health services for additional support

Whether a child needs a listening ear, a calming activity, or more structured help, we are here to support them every step of the way. Together, we can help every child grow into a confident, caring, and emotionally resilient individual.

Mrs Jessop is the lead for Mental Health and Wellbeing. If you have some concerns about your child please make an appointment through the office, call on 01442 252972 or email admin@nashmills.herts.sch.uk.
