Wellbeing and Resilience Day

 

An inspiring and nurturing one day programme for any year group. Learn about mental health, physical wellbeing and emotional growth. This programme is designed to re-inspire self care and a deeper understanding of resilience.

We are in unprecedented times. Now more than ever we need to learn to navigate ourselves to changing contexts and adapt in ways that ensure wellbeing. The Wellbeing and Resilience Day is an opportunity for students to learn new skills, develop the right mindset and prepare for the future they want. 

We believe it is important to give time and space to develop good mental health and wellbeing.  We will work with the young people to develop their own toolkit they can open anytime in the future when they need it. 

“I learnt how to improve wellbeing - through being yourself and shifting your focus to appreciate your talents, reflecting on what you are grateful for, being mindful and aware of your emotions, being kind to both yourself and others, and being resilient.”

Student, 2020

“For everyone, well-being is a journey. The secret is committing to that journey and taking those first steps with hope and belief in yourself.”

“The ability to cope with uncertainty, develop new attitudes and values, and act productively and meaningfully, even when goals shift, remains, for the moment, a uniquely human skill”
