Prepare your students for their toughest exam: life.
Professional development is available for educators. Participants attend a one-day (Middle School and ESL) accreditation that enables them to deliver the program in their own classroom. In this way entire year groups of students can benefit, fostering a school culture of independence and resilience.
Junior School Program
This program is designed for Year 3 students. Student workbooks for the Junior Program may be purchased and used
without any formal training. Training is available upon request.
Being able to see the impact of their behaviour upon others, to calm themselves down more swiftly and to see that they have a choice about how they respond are essential building blocks of resilience that are taught in the Junior School program.
It is designed to build a foundation of resilience that can be built upon as they mature.
It combines direct student activities with the indirect modelling of the skills by the educators. This is crucial for the Year 1 to Year 4 age group and allows resilience to be learnt throughout the school day, not just during devoted lesson time.
