đź’šToday is World Mental Health Day 2025 đź’š

This year’s theme, “Connect with Your Community,” reminds us that we’re stronger when we’re connected. Whether it’s a smile at a neighbour, a message to a friend, or joining a local group — these small moments of connection can lift mood, ease stress, and build a sense of belonging. 🌿

✨ Take one mindful step today:
Say hello to someone new, reach out to a friend, or spend time in your community. Every act of connection makes a difference — for both you and those around you.

đź’¬ How are you celebrating connection today? Share in the comments or tag someone who helps you feel grounded.

📍 At Woodside, we’re proud to be part of a community that supports one another — every day, in big and small ways.

đź’Ś Mental Health Tip: Take 10 minutes today to reach out to a friend, family member, or loved one.

Even a short chat can boost your mood, reduce stress, and help you feel calmer. When we connect with others, our bodies release hormones like oxytocin, which can lower cortisol (the stress hormone) and leave us feeling more supported and grounded. 🌿

✨ Small conversations make a big difference — not just for you, but for the person you reach out to.

💬 Try it today: Who could you send a message to or call? Tag them, share your story, or comment below — let’s spread connection and support!

✨ R U OK? Day 2025 ✨

Today is a gentle reminder to pause, check in, and have a meaningful conversation with the people around us. đź’›

A simple “Are you OK?” can make a world of difference — sometimes it’s exactly what someone needs to hear.

Let’s break the silence, listen with compassion, and remind each other that we’re not alone. 🌼

đź’¬ Ask.
đź‘‚ Listen.
🤝 Encourage action.
đź’› Check in again.

Together, we can create a culture where it’s safe to talk about how we really feel.

So today — and every day — let’s take a moment to reach out. You never know whose life you might change just by asking. 💛

✨MYTH BUSTED ✨

Think therapy is only for people with “serious” mental illness? Think again!
The truth is: therapy can help you build resilience, manage stress, and grow — at any stage of life. 🌿

It’s always okay to ask for help.

Wondering if your child is ready for Prep?
It’s common to feel unsure—especially when your child is bright in some areas but still developing in others.

A school readiness assessment can provide a clear understanding of where your child is at—socially, emotionally, and academically. It’s not about being “ahead” or “behind,” but about making sure they have the right support as they take this next big step.

Here are 3 signs your child may benefit from an assessment:
đź‘ź Trouble following instructions or staying focused
đź’¬ Difficulty expressing themselves or understanding others
🤝 Challenges with social skills or managing big emotions

Every child develops differently. If you're noticing some of these signs, an assessment can help you make an informed, confident decision about when—and how—they start school.
