Jenny: 

My ‘aha!’ Moment was the ‘you can’t stop the waves but you can learn how to surf’ phrase.. it really spoke to me.

Also the discussion around positive purpose being based on individual morals - For instance it might not be about doing something for others. I hadn’t really considered that before.

I liked the idea of using a model of a ‘level up’ for teaching children about failure. I can think about a number of kids in my base group who that could really speak to!!

James: 

I really liked the idea of Positive Psychology being a progression from Traditional Psychology. With traditional psychology being reactive to mental illness, Pos-Psy (as I like to call it) aims to be preventative.

Well Being Meeting- Long Term Plan: Thursday 21st June

-Look at annual plan together
-Connect topics with the domains we feel they sit in
-Have some time to plan specifically for those areas, thinking about how we explicitly make the links to what we do with the domains
-Linking into the parent workshop evening around mindset and maths ---think about brain development/growth topics
-Day in term 4
-Visualisation of ourselves embedding model… day to day experience Gabrielle

Share plan - terms 3 and 4: what fits where; other ideas? Gillian Share pos ed Model, talk about that we do a lot and we can draw a lot of connections but it is really about explicitly doing it and connecting it for the kids. With that being said our challenge to you is to put the things we have done and the things we are thinking of doing back in the domains you think they fit BEST. Then brainstorm any other ideas you have that will connect with what we already are doing that we can deliberatley link to the model.
