School Days:
Transition Workshop
Our Year 6 and Year 7 Transition workshops have been developed to support children in celebrating their time at your school, considering both the fresh opportunities that transition brings them and exploring ways of overcoming any challenges they might meet. Workshops culminate spoken words of declarations, short skits for Memory Lane and Forward Focus.
Transition Workshops supports students on a mission like no other…a journey into a place where certain failure lies around every corner, and where it will take motivation, ingenuity, and personal skills leadership to make it through.
​
Pack your rucksack of resilience and bring your cloak of confidence as we navigate the undergrowth of uncertainty, wade through the wastelands of worry and try to defeat the dragon of doubt.
​
In this workshop we introduce students to the idea that confidence is built on acts of everyday courage. Alongside this, we look at how these acts of courage might mean inevitable moments of failure. We challenge notions of perfectionism and show how moments of failure are essential as opportunities to learn and grow.
