PEER SUPPORT PROGRAM

Peer Support

Week 1 – Being Friendly

We commenced our Peer Support lessons this week.

The whole school will participate in Peer Support for 30 minutes each week. Two ‘peer leaders’ facilitate a small group of 8-10 younger students, who work together through a number of structured activities.

This year's module 'Keeping Friends' is helping us explore the concept of friendship, building relationships and developing skills in empathy and critical thinking.

Our first session enabled the children to get to know everyone in their group, agree on how they will work together and interact cooperatively with others. They also began to think about the meaning of friendship.

We encourage you to talk to your children about Peer Support every week as it will help to reinforce the concepts learned in each session.
