World Mental Health Day Mental health is the foundation of a healthy life, both at home and in every community, including schools. Today, we observe World Mental Health Day, a time to reflect on how we care for ourselves and for one another. This year's theme, "Access to Services Mental Health in Catastrophes and Emergencies," reminds us that support must be available not just in clinics or hospitals, but also in the places we live and learn. At home, open conversations and emotional support can make all the difference. In schools, creating safe, inclusive environments helps young people thrive - especially during times of stress or crisis. In our communities, we must ensure that mental health care is accessible to everyone, everywhere especially in emergencies. Let's continue to: Break the stigma Support mental well-being in every space Advocate for services that reach those who need them most Because mental health is a right - not a privilege. #WorldMentalHealthDay #MentalHealthMatters #AccessToCare #SupportAtHome #SupportInSchools #WMHD2025 #gosforthgroup #gosforthjuniorhighacademy

6A Stepping into History! Our young historians explored what life was like working in the North East as members of the RAF and WRAF during WWII. Their journey took them deep into Kenton's Secret Bunker, uncovering stories of bravery, resilience, and life on the home front. A powerful and immersive experience that brought history to life! #gosforthjuniorhighacademy #gosforthgroup #creatingfutures #WWII #RAF #WRAF #KentonSecretBunker #LivingHistory #6AHistorians

Historians in the Making! 6J stepped back in time as they explored the mysterious 'Box of Delights', uncovering artefacts from World War 2. With curiosity and critical thinking, they asked: What was this used for? What does it tell us about life during the war? A brilliant hands-on history lesson that brought the past to life! #YoungHistorians #WW2 #BoxOfDelights #HistoryInTheClassroom #gosforthjuniorhighacademy #GosforthGroup #CreatingFutures
