At Linden Meadows, we believe that fostering positive mental health is essential for helping children thrive. It: 

    • Enhances their ability to learn and build resilience.
    • Supports emotional regulation and self-awareness.  
    • Strengthens coping and problem-solving skills. 
    • Boosts engagement, achievement, and attendance. 
    • Cultivates empathy and respect for diversity. 
    • Reduces bullying and aggression.


To support this, we incorporate a range of practices across our school community. These include mindfulness in the classroom, yoga integrated into our physical education program, and a focus on shifting students' mindsets from "fixed" to "growth" through language and reframing. Each morning many classes begin with a class meeting and Active Start activities as weather permits. We also offer several specialist programs, such as Roots of Empathy and Kids in the Know.
