Flourish Girl Program

On Monday the 21st of August, our Year 10 girls were given an opportunity to be involved in the Flourish Girl program that was run on site at Greensborough College. 

 

Flourish Girl is a program designed to promote positive mental health and emotional intelligence in teenage girls while building self confidence and social connectedness. This program provides a safe, supportive space for girls to open up to one another and create a stronger connection to not only their peers but themselves. Students were encouraged to communicate and share experiences with peers who they might not usually do so with, providing an opportunity for new bonds and connections. 

 

Students engaged in large group discussions, small activities, self-confidence-based games, and personal reflections that required them to exhibit high levels of vulnerability in a group setting.  All students were incredibly respectful to not only facilitators but also their peers throughout the day. Formal feedback was given and by all accounts the program was incredibly successful, with students reporting stronger feelings of self confidence and connection with their peers.
