“I loved the RESILIENCE KIT! My Yr 7 & 8 students really enjoyed putting the kit up on the wall and getting it all set up. It was visually appealing and putting the cards in and out of the envelopes was a great gimmick for my kiddos. We did not get through the entire body of work, but it is up on the wall, so maybe when we are all back in our class, we will pick it back up - that is the plan of attack.”

“We were loving using this kit. We are a hub class. I work in the class two days a week as I release the 2 other teachers. We modified the one kit to suit all 52 of our students. We enjoyed working with the students in both the initial brainstorming around feelings and as we worked our way through the booklet. We were able to take small groups where needed and cater for specific things with certain students with out drawing attention to them as everyone was technically doing the same thing. We will definitely be continuing to use this when we get back as it will still be extremely relevant as well using this program again in future years.”

“I loved the entire concept of this kit. Having the parents fill in a personal letter for their children helped everyone realise just how special and loved they are. The video clips about how we see ourselves differently to others was a real lightbulb moment for many of the students. The recharging station was a great concept. Luckily, I had a class that felt pretty good about themselves but it was interesting to identify those students that were less resilient than others. It would be interesting to keep this going over the course of the Covid-19 pandemic to see how the children are coping. An online survey might’ve worked well during the Lockdown to replace the physical recharging station.”

“At times I Did find the instructions a bit hard to follow but with support from others I got through about a third of it before lockdown. Sorry I have no photos as I wasn’t up to the stage of using the station”

“From the brief look at it I thought that it was likely to be an interesting and worthwhile group of activities. Unfortunately I was unable to deliver this in my classroom and I was waiting for the end of Term 1 and the beginning of Term 2 to start it.”

How have the components within the kit helped develop your student self-confidence? Great visual aids with the pockets and the cards. The journal was well set out and had really easy to understand statements and visuals. The tokens were able to be used in a self directed manner.

How have the components of the kit helped develop Student-Teacher communication? It has given students the albility to give words and meanings to their feelings. It has given the students the power to control what they do and how that effects their behaviour, feelings and emotions.

“A well reourced kit with many componets to help reach all learners. Student driven and teacher supported, students are able to identity their feelings and why may might feel this way. It enables students to help others and create a sense of wellbeing with the people around them - teachers and whanau. A wonderful resource with easy to understand visuals and instructions.”
