BEST clubs are designed to help grow your child’s social and emotional wellbeing. By focusing on the development of a child’s brain we teach how each unique part creates our thoughts, feelings and actions. Through interactive activities in sport, art and drama we build the life skills needed to develop into strong and confident young adults.

This term our programme is Resilience –

Learning to Find and Channel our Resilience to Strengthen our Independence in Every-Day Life

Mental resources like determination, self-worth and kindness are what makes us Resilient. Resilience is the skill that enables us to cope when things are hard and push through challenges that create obstacles in our daily life and future ahead.

Resilience is what enables us to grow our brains, to strengthen those positive ‘wired’ behaviours, to get up and to ‘bounce back’ when we face disappointment, failure and anxiety. True resilience grows well-being, a feeling of calm and inner strength and positive thinking.

During this term we will be exploring, growing and using, mental resources for resilient well-being to overcome every-day situations. We will discuss useful ideas about the brain, challenges, games, art and strategies for building specific strengths to create perseverance and the ability to overcome obstacles in all shapes and sizes!
