  Our Assembly for World Mental Health Day was inspired by John Burgerman's Everybody Worries, written about how children can still worry about the Coronavirus.

  At the end of the video is a tutorial on creating a cartoon character, inspired by his book.
  I suggested that any child who wanted to have a go, could bring their cartoons to me by Friday. I will pick one at random, with a prize out of the box in my office.
