Balmville Elementary School Hosts a Wellness Fair for Students & Families

Students and families attended Balmville's Wellness Fair in honor of Mental Health Awareness Month. The fair consisted of several stations where students and their families participated in wellness activities focusing on self-care, mindfulness, and positive self-talk. Stations included making sensory bottles, breathing sticks, planting tomato plants, yoga/ mindfulness, coloring, and trying out new fidgets at the fidget station! Families also had the opportunity to connect with community partners such as Merakey and Affinity Healthcare to learn more about mental health services.
