Dress to Express - Thursday 10th October 2024
Dear Parents/Carers,
Broadford Primary will be celebrating World Mental Health Day by inviting all children to attend school in non-school uniform.
Children can attend school in any outfit of their choosing (please don't feel the need to buy new!).
They can express themselves however they feel, in bright colours and comfy clothes.
Across the school we will be completing activities and most of all talking!
Thanks for your support.
