'Play is the Way' is how we help our tamariki learn social and emotional competencies. They are the skills we all use to handle ourselves and our relationships with others. Tamariki always need good role models and appropriate behaviour is best learnt through modelling by the adults in their lives.

This week our focus is “it takes great strength to be sensible.”

You can show this by :-

• Standing up for others

• By doing the right thing and not following others

• Be positive when it is hard

• Think before acting

• Don’t say things about others when you don’t know the full story

• Think before you speak

• Co-operate with new and different people

• Stay calm when you are upset

                                        How strong are you?
