EMPOWERED PROGRAM

The Character Strength I would like to highlight this week is LOVE.

"Love is being loving, kind and thoughtful and trying your best to help others to feel better."

The students in the Empowered Program have been exploring the diferent ways to love and then during the week have been encouraged to be a "Strengths Spotter."  This can happen at school, with friends, at home where they are looking for the people showing love in it many and varied forms.  

Challenge: This weekend see if you can be Strengths Spotter looking for acts of love both big and small.

Students this week began to lead one of the nine calming strategies taught at St Pat's within their Empowered group.

                                                                                  

PEER MEDIATION

Every week now on Mondays and Fridays two different grade five students roam the junior playground looking for students wo are being St Pat's Kids and handing out tokens while also helping the younger students come up with positive solutions to their disputes.

PASSION CLUBS

Abbie Murray led 13 students in their first dance club experience.  All students followed Abbie as she took leadership sharing some of her choreography and asking other students for their ideas.   I cannot wait to see next weeks moves!

ST PAT'S NEWS ON LOCATION

Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday our resident news reporters Isobel and Nate roam the school sharing daily announcements. Log onto SEESAW or facebook to see what is happening.
