Peaceful Kids at Galilee

The 'Peaceful Kids' program is a Mindfulness and Positive Psychology based program to lessen anxiety and stress and increase resilience in children. This program helps children to build their emotional resilience so they are better equipped to deal with the day to day stresses that life brings them.  Over the past few weeks, we have been enjoying exploring different emotions and feelings and discussing ways to manage them effectively. Next week, for Wellbeing Week, our Peaceful Kids Facilitators will be delivering a Peaceful Classroom session to all year levels so that our students can all enjoy the benefits of mindfulness. 

Wellbeing Week 

During Week 5 of every term, Galilee is introducing Wellbeing Week. Next week our focus topic is All Together Now. Students will not receive any homework for the week but are encouraged to continue reading and complete activities that they enjoy. At school, students will be doing different activities with their buddies throughout the week. Peaceful Classroms will be introduced across the entire school. We will also focus on bullying and racism, reinforcing the school motto to Live, Love & Learn. We will also examine the meaning of the school prayer.

Spirit of God, we praise you for the life and love you give us.

Thank you for the many people who care for us here at Galilee.

Help us to be a loving caring community.

Give us the strength to be able to forgive.

Share with us your understanding.

Help us to be aware of other’s feelings.

And guide us safely through our day.

Amen
