Primary students were excited to begin the Peer Support program in Week 3.  The students are 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. 

During this week's session, the children established connections with other members of their group and developed their group agreement to enable them to work well together.  The children discussed an example of a challenging situation and some resilient and non resilient responses.  Our Year 6 students did a fantastic job at conducting the lesson for our Kindergarten to Year 5 students.

You might like to discuss with your child what they can do to help them take an active role in Peer Support.
