All children are capable of extraordinary things!
The potential for happiness and greatness lies within them and we, as educators, can help them along the way. During this one day course you will have the opportunity to explore the importance of creating resilient learners in the primary years. It is during these formative years, where there is a window of opportunity for all involved in a child’s life, to ensure every child has the resources and protections required to develop adaptive tools and relationships that they will need to engage with in the future and be well prepared for all possibilities. It is by building resilience in these formative years that we can help prepare our children for the unexpected difficulties they may face as they grow up and in later life, so impacting on their wellbeing and ability to achieve their goals.
By developing their resilience in these formative years, we are not only preparing our children for future academic achievement but for personal success in the future.
The course will focus on what we mean by resilient learners and how we can create meaningful opportunities in the school day for learners to build their capacity to become resilient and be well equipped for the future.
We will look at very practical hands on activities that can be used in class to build resilience and make meaning for the learners, so they can see their own personal growth.
