Children’s Mental Health Week 2018 will run from 5-11 February and is all about #BeingOurselves. Having a positive view of ourselves can help us to cope with life’s challenges, and recognising the different qualities of others can allow us to connect with those around us, which is vital for our own and others’ wellbeing. Find out more about how to get involved and download teaching resources.

Applicable to current P7 children.
The Scottish Football Association (SFA) Performance Schools will again operate at strategic locations around the country for the 2018/19 school session. The aim of the Performance School is to develop talented footballers as well as supporting their education. The Performance School for the Tayside area is established at St John’s High School, Dundee.
The pupils being targeted for selection are those presently in P7, and selected pupils would join the S1 cohort in St John’s HS Dundee next August, and be part of the Performance School until S4. Selected pupils would receive regular football coaching sessions from a highly qualified coach, and an appropriate education programme planned around the football coaching.
Pupils selected from P7 will be of a particularly high standard of football ability for their age, and will have to achieve a high standard across a range of competencies in trials.
