Peer support at Pretty Beach
Pretty Beach Public School students have been participating in weekly peer support sessions.
The weekly sessions are focused on taking opportunities which concentrates on resilience.
The experiences presented in these sessions help the children develop skills to identify their strengths, celebrate their achievements and seek assistance when faced with challenges.
Over the first two weeks students established group agreements to work together and learnt about the other members of their group.
They then discussed having a go and what to do when faced with difficulties and identified the need for courage when they try something new.
