Social - Emotional Learning
At Beaufort Primary School, our students take part in Social-Emotional Learning lessons to support their overall wellbeing.
Our program focuses on The Resilience Project, which uses the GEM principles of Gratitude, Empathy, Mindfulness, and Emotional Literacy:
● Gratitude is about paying attention to and being thankful for the things we have.
● Empathy is about understanding others’ feelings and perspectives and being kind to others.
● Mindfulness is about bringing our attention to the present moment and being aware of our thoughts, emotions and surroundings.
● Emotional Literacy is about labelling our emotions as we experience them and increasing our emotional vocabulary.
In these lessons, students learn how to practise applying these principles in age-appropriate ways. This often involves listening to stories or watching videos to see how other people or characters could use those skills, before gradually learning how to apply them to their own lives.
