As part of our Kahui Ako partnership with Skylight we have had the opportunity for each class to particpate in a mental agility and resilience workshop.

We were excited to welcome Lily, the programme coordinator at Skylight, and her colleagues for the facilitation of Tai Oranga in our classes this week.

The wellbeing programme is aimed at students in years 5 & 6 and supports them to develop their resilience by:

- Having a healthy mind

- Fostering an active lifestyle

- Empowering them to make good nutritional decisions

- Promoting a positive self-esteem

The facilitators ran a variety of activities throughout the morning, such as learning mindfulness and relaxation techniques, using movement breaks to stay active, exploring & preparing their own kai, and creating art work.
