As you know we are a PATHS school. We deliver PATHS wellbeing programme across the school from P1-P7. This involves teaching our children Positive Alternative Thinking Strategies in a bid to promote positive behaviour and wellbeing.
At the end of last session all of our Classroom Assistants were trained to ensure consistent delivery of the programme across the school.
This session I am delighted to announce that some of our P6 pupils have taken on a leadership role and have been appointed PATHS Buddies. Their role is to support the younger children in the playground by helping them to find friends, play fun games and support them if they feel overwhelmed.
At the beginning of the session our P2’s and P3’s found the walk along the ECC lane a bit daunting in the morning. Our Buddies have worked hard to support the wee ones by meeting them at the gate prior to 9am and walking them along into the playground or school on a wet morning. As a result we have had positive results and some great feedback from parents. Keep up the good work P6!
