Gumboot Friday

A while ago it was Gumboot Friday. Gumboot Friday is about mental health. Mental health includes our
emotional and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel, and act. It also helps determine
how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices. Mental health is important at every
stage of life.

We wrote positive comments on cards for Gumboot Friday we wrote messages like,
“Don't ruin a good today by thinking about a bad yesterday. Let it go. Hope this makes your day.”

The idea came from Healthy Puketapapa Student Questionnaire, when we were doing that lots
of us chose mental health. One of the students in my Classroom suggested an idea to post cards
with positive comments in letterboxes.
It relates with our inquiry topic of well-being. A part of well-being is mental health because
it means you're positive and your life's ok.
My opinion of mental health is to
be positive and happy at stages in your life when you're frustrated.
