Wellbeing

During Term 4 in the Social Emotional Learning (SEL) classes, students from Foundation- Year 6 will be exploring Problem Solving. Throughout the year, students have been exposed to a number of programs such as; Zones of Regulation, Peaceful Kids and Rhythm2Recovery (R2R), to help support their social and emotional wellbeing.

The topic of Problem Solving comes from the Resilience, Rights and Respectful Relationships (RRRR) Program. Given that our children will inevitably experience problems/ issues in their daily lives and some of the following (age appropriate) activities will help develop skills and knowledge to

Practise solving simple interpersonal problems
Practise individual and group decision-making
Listen to others’ ideas and recognise that others may see things differently, Recognise there are many ways to solve conflict
Devise strategies and plans to assist in the completion of challenging tasks, decisions or problems
Describe and apply strategies that can be used in situations that make them feel uncomfortable or unsafe.
