INSIDE OUT DAY
‘Inside Out Day�� is a day for everyone to be involved in because everyone matters. It is a day when we think about mental health. Mental health relates to how we think and feel and how we manage difficult situations.

Children can come to school in onesies/pyjamas although we ask that whatever they do wear, it is appropriate for school and will keep them warm. There will be a prize for the best outfit, a sweepstake and a bake sale.
