St Nicholas are offering the P6 and P7 pupils the opportunity to participate in our Seasons for Growth programme this term. Seasons for Growth is a programme devised to help children to cope with changes in their family through loss or bereavement. The programme was developed in Australia over 20 years ago and is used across the globe to support the emotional wellbeing of young people. We hope to offer the programme to other age groups in the coming months.
Primaries 2 and 2/1 have been learning about being resilient. We watched a video of Mr Bump and noticed that when he fell over, he just got back up and tried again! We found out that the word resilient means that we don’t give up when we find something difficult, we just try again! We discovered that different people find different things difficult, but that it’s important to keep trying! We then drew a picture of something that we find tricky and wrote a sentence about resilience. Take a look at some of them!
After we drew our pictures we sang the song Incy Wincy. We noticed that Incy Wincy was resilient because even though the rain washed him away he climbed up the spout again! We then learned another verse to Incy Wincy which was :
When you face a challenge, do the best you can.
We all feel down when things don’t go to plan.
Look on the bright side. Have another try.
Be like Incy Wincy, and keep on aiming high!
Primary 2 are resilient!
