Peer Support Begins at BWPS

 

Our whole school started peer Support sessions this week. 

The children will be participating in a new module, Moving Forward which focuses on resilience. The experiences in the module help children to identify their qualities and strengths, develop skills, respond with a range of strategies and seek support when faced with challenges. 

In this week's session, the children established connections with the other members of their group and developed their group agreement to enable them to work well together. 

They then discussed examples of challenging situations and some resilient and non resilient responses. A big thank you goes to our wonderful Stage 3 leaders.They underwent two full days of leadership training last week and did a fantastic job of leading their peer groups this week.
