This term, Primary 6 pupils took part in the AWARE Paws b six week programme, where they explored mindfulness and emotional wellbeing through a series of engaging lessons. The children learned to:
- Understand how our amazing brains work
- Work with difficult thoughts and feelings
- Become aware of their choices
- React versus respond
- Focus their attention
- Recognise the power of thoughts
- Practise everyday mindfulness
- See thoughts clearly
- Notice the wobble
- Grow their happiness
- Ground themselves
- Take notice of the good stuff
The programme helped pupils build resilience, improve focus, and develop tools to support their mental health in everyday life. A special thank you to Madonna our wonderful facilitator.
