All the pupils from Brookmans Park Primary School took a walk around Gobions this week as part of a day of activity aimed at raising awareness of mental health issues.

After a nature walk the youngsters returned to school to fashion autumnal decorations for a temporary display to be pinned to some of the trees in Brookmans Park village centre.
