Life Education

We had another exciting trip to the Life Education truck today. 

Lynn and Harold had some great things to say....



THE COMPANY WE KEEP REFLECTS-AND HELPS DETERMINE THE-THE KIND OF PEOPLE WE BECOME.

How do we choose good friends?

They should...


  • Be someone we can count on
  • Be motivated
  • Be someone who teaches us new things
  • Behave in a socially acceptable way
  • Have the same values we have
  • Not have destructive habits
Remember...Bullying is when someone repeatedly does or says things to have power over another person.

If you are being bullied what can you do?
Tell them to stop
Use our WITs:
Walk away
Ignore
Tell an adult

Do you know someone who is being bullied?
SAVE them:
Say - Try and stop the bully - we don't do that, we don't talk like that....
Adult Help
Volunteer Solutions - come and join our game.
* End it

We learnt that disagreements are okay but it is important how you deal with them. We don't scream and shout but we could use some of these strategies.

It's okay to disagree but....
* The best rule is to keep cool.
* Get it right without a fight.
* Give and take and negotiate
* Short fuses are not excuses.

Take a STAND
Stop and calm down
Take turns to talk about how we're feeling.
Alternatives what are they
Narrow down the choices of what we can do
Decide on the best choice.

  1. This is a very topical & typical day to day subject which I think the girls & parents can learn a lot from by adopting the suggested strategies.
    GREAT WORK
