MELVA: Digital showcase
Online Event
MELVA: Mental Health Education through storytelling programme showcase.
Melva is simply the best drama intervention; I have ever seen. The rewards are instant and long lasting. - Primary Head Teacher
As of November 2022, it is estimated that at least 1 in 6 children aged 716 are likely to have a diagnosable mental health condition.
It has never been more important for us to find new ways to talk to and teach children about mental wellbeing from an early age. MELVA is a creative, high impact intervention, doing just that through storytelling.
Join Mortal Fools, for a digital showcase of MELVA a mental health Education through storytelling programme focusing on early intervention for children aged 711 (Key Stage 2), using recognised and recommended mental health first aid strategies, communicated in a child friendly and accessible way.
MELVA is for all children, not just those who are struggling. It focuses on teaching children the basic skills and understanding they need to keep themselves well, whatever challenges they might face in the future, supporting the development of resilience pathways, positive emotional responses and relationships.
Across this hour showcase Mortal Fools will walk you through the MELVA invention consisting of different MELVA programmes series of animations, a feature film in 5 episodes and a choose your own adventure game, each with wrap around activities, lesson plans, teacher resources, extension bank of activities and themed assemblies and an evaluation framework.
Mortal Fools will also share school case studies, impact data, how its been used in SEND settings and the new for academic year 24/25 intervention for Year 6 focusing on transitions.
This showcase is open to any teacher/educator from current MELVA schools, settings interested in purchasing MELVA for academic year 24/25, Trust representatives, Local Authority School Improvement Teams & Public Health colleagues and potential commissioners.
