Westwood Day Nursery mark Mental Health Awareness Week
Managers from Westwood Day Nursery in Coventry showed their appreciation for their dedicated colleagues with a series of initiatives during Mental Health Awareness Week.
At the Ofsted-rated ‘Outstanding’ Day Nursery on Westwood Business Park, teams were each gifted wellbeing bags to boost morale, with contents including tea and coffee pouches, positive quotes and affirmations, sweet treats and stationary, whilst colleagues created the time to talk about anything that was on their minds, no matter how big or small it seemed.
As part of the festivities, children explored feelings using their beloved ‘The Colour Monster’ storybook, before showcasing their creativity with drawings to represent various expressions.
Westwood Day Nursery Manager, Lyndsey Matthews explained;
“World Mental Health Day provided a brilliant opportunity to remind ourselves of the small steps we can take to improve the wellbeing of ourselves and those around us. We always strive to show our colleagues how much they mean to us and how much we appreciate the incredible work they do, as well as open up the dialogue on this important topic.”
We prioritise the importance of outdoor play at Cedars Day Nursery in Leighton Buzzard. All children at our Ofsted-rated ‘Outstanding’ nursery have access to our large, natural garden area on a daily basis as we recognise the impact that being outdoors has on a child’s social, emotional and physical development. The children enjoy planting vegetables and tasting their produce, served by our dedicated Nursery Chef.
