Who are you? What is your identity? How do you feel about yourself?

This is the second year Themed Learning Week has been running at Mulberry. It has been something the students at the school have become very excited about due to the various activities that go on. In particular, many students have been thrilled about taking part in the Health and Social Care project. Health and Social Care is a project about finding out who you are, how you feel about yourself, and what your identity is. The lead teacher involved with this project is Ms Stanton.

We the Press Team have witnessed some of the different activities that the students have been taking part in and spoke to some students: “The meditation process has really calmed me down.  I would encourage other students to pick the Health and Social Care project next year,” said Aklima in 9M.


The students have been able to get creative in the arts and crafts sessions which are also a part of the Health and Social Care project. Here is an interview with a student who is taking part in the programme:

1.      How are you finding this project?

“This project is great. I’m finding this work appealing and fun. I am really excited about this project because I’m learning something different each time, as well as havingfun with everyone. I particularly enjoy meeting different pupils from other years.”

2.      Why did you choose this project?

“I have chosen Health and Social Care because I think it is interesting and fun. I heard that we would be taking pulse rates from other students; I was very excited about that.”

3.      What have you been doing so far?

“So far, we have been meditating. I have also learnt some very complex and painful yoga positions. I have enjoyed the arts and crafts sessions, and the pulse taking.”

So far the Health and Social Care project has been a great success. The students have really enjoyed themselves so far. For the next couple of days the students should think about who they are, and they should relax and feel better."
