Colour Carnival 2026!
When? Wednesday 20th or Friday 22nd May 2026 (or tell us a day that suits you best)
Heads Up Kids is excited to be running our Colour Carnival 2026 Event, to raise awareness of positive mental health and fundraise for our charity. Children will have the opportunity to express themselves by wearing a colourful item of clothing to school in return for a £1 (or more!) donation. All money raised will go directly to support the work that Heads Up Kids carries out in schools, providing social and emotional wellbeing programmes to primary school aged children.
Heads Up kids provide free resources and activities for all year groups, alongside an assembly plan for the day.
To register your school to take part in Colour Carnival 2026: Book (free) here or email for further information info@headsupkids.org.uk
To make an online donation directly to Colour Carnival 2026, you can click the donation link HERE, or scan the QR code below.
You can enter the school name and we will be able to tell each school participating how much was raised.
An advantage of donating online is that we can also collect Gift Aid (if eligible) which means the charity gets an extra 25p per £1 donated, at no extra cost to you or us!
Thank you in advance for your your generosity!
The Colour Carnival is all about building positivity and celebrating our uniqueness, with children wearing brightly coloured clothes to school to promote positivity through colour.
In a session delivered in the classroom by their class teacher, the children will learn about positive mental health. They will think about their uniqueness, consider all of our differences and explore all the things that make us feel resilient and positive – all components of positive mental health.
