ROCK AND WATER

Last week at Opihi we had the exciting opportunity to deliver the Rock and Water for our Year 7 and 8 students. Rock and Water is a social skills programme that develops empowerment and resilience. The programme is about developing responses to situations, rather than reactions; making a conscious, controllable decision in any situation. Throughout the programme students were taught the importance of self-control, walking away, being a good friend, boundaries, speaking up for yourself and basic self-defence. They will continue their learning in term 4 with part two of the course.
