What impact has this kit had on your classroom community? This has had such a positive impact on the whole class and some issues we had been trying to deal with. I highly recommend this kit!

“This was just what my class needed. There had been some unkind behaviour happening between certain groups of students and also within some long term friend groups so this couldn't have come at a better time. It helped everyone to work out some useful strategies for disagreements and to remember to focus on kindness with each other.”

“This kit was very helpful for some students in this class. They gained a bit more confidence in themselves by recognizing some of their feelings and how it affected them during the day. Each morning each student put the token in the appropriate box - we had some who put it in the red and then decided that was not the right one for them. I feel that most students gained something from the activities provided. The activity booklet was really helpful and some students need to finish this off. We will continue to use these next term. Thank you once again for providing us with these amazing kits. Annette Pickering and Simon Pepper”

“The students loved the resources. Token check in happening daily. I would love to see a QR code on the top of the box to send you straight to the resources as logging into different pages on the site was like a rabbit hole that I didn't have time for. I found the resources after I had introduced the booklet on my own way. Would be great to make resources accessible and easy to find for time poor teachers who want to make a difference for their students:)”

Please provide 2+ examples of student voice on the kit's impact on them "I liked taking the letter home and reading what my mum wrote about me" "I like all the cards and getting to choose one and use the ideas to help me when I'm feeling bad"

Which kit components were the most impactful and why? The videos stimulated a lot of conversation with my students about the things we say about ourselves. I loved watching their eyes light up when I shared the three words I had chosen for them. Having letters written by a trusted adult brought so many smiles to my students faces and I had parents comment how much they enjoyed writing them.

What is the legacy this kit will leave behind on your learners? I hope they will take away some strategies they can use when they need a boost of self-confidence.

“I found this kit had some amazing resources in it. Teaching mainly year 4's a lot of the activities in it were a bit heavy for our tamariki. I adapted some of them and was able to use parts of the kit. I loved the letter from someone you love part. This allowed the tamariki to have something positive and tangible from someone in their life.”

Please provide 2+ examples of student voice on the kit's impact on them "I am happy to be able to stop and work out how I'm feeling, as I come into class each day. The booklet that we used most days was pretty great too". Another student who struggles with anxiety, quietly did this each day and read the cards thoughtfully. In discussion with this student, they commented that they had enjoyed them and the booklet would be helpful at home.

Which kit components were the most impactful and why? For fun the mat was awesome and gave the kit a beautiful 'place' in our class. One student had experienced the kit at his primary school and was pleased we were doing it here. I think the follow-up cards were awesome but we had to remember to go over some of those to 'highlight them' The booklets were my favourite bit.

What is the legacy this kit will leave behind on your learners? It's OK to be 'not OK' and that there are helpful and accessible hints and people to talk to, if they want.

In what ways has this kit helped develop student confidence Students were hesitant at first but it became a habit in their minds during this time. They became more confident at being more honest, as time went on.

What impact has this kit had on your classroom community? Expectations are that you join in with what we're doing; in general students were happy to share with their buddies (at their tables) in a less formal or obvious way and more students were happy to share their learnings with the whole class, as the kit proceeded.

“We have trialled all sorts of starters to our day, including various mindfulness activities, te whare tapa wha and breathing. This kit was awesome. Students loved the ease and accessibility, the 'change' and interestingly the cards were beautiful to help, when needed. Thank you - the display of this was beautiful. I changed the cards once a week so they had access to a lot of them and I found that more mature students were able to step-in, when studetns were low and either help or let me know. Wonderful! Thank you, nga mihi!”

Please provide 2+ examples of student voice on the kit's impact on them One student said they appreciated the opportunity to sit with me after school and talk about what was contributing to their low self confidence and helped to have some guidance. Another student said it is just nice knowing that someone cares about how they are feeling each day.

Which kit components were the most impactful and why? The tokens because its an easy indicator for both them and me to share how they are feeling. Then they know I will follow up if red on that day too.

What is the legacy this kit will leave behind on your learners? That someone is there to listen and help if they need it. That building our self-confidence is something that we can do together also.

In what ways has this kit helped develop student confidence Gives them the chance to voice if feeling a little low on a particular day. Then my little booster comment, and the booster cards can help with positive affirmation.

What impact has this kit had on your classroom community? The girls feel they can talk about it together. We had a 5 week whole school lesson on Maia (self-confidence) too so it was perfect timing for all to learn from this.

What impact has this kit had on your classroom community? Bought the girls together and even some of the boys take the cards out and read them.

“Certainly, here's a revised version of your description: Over the past four weeks, I've been implementing the Dove Self-Confidence kit in my intermediate-aged class. What I've noticed is that the girls in my class are more likely to use it compared to the boys. In addition, I conducted a brief self-confidence quiz and found that the boys generally displayed higher self-confidence levels than the girls, which seems to correlate with their usage patterns. Every day, approximately 7-8 children in my class place their tokens in a designated box, providing me with valuable insights into how they are feeling at the start of the day. If a student places their token in the red section, it serves as a signal for me to have a quick conversation with them to understand what might be causing their lower mood on that particular day. If it's something I can address immediately, I take action; otherwise, I follow up later to check on their well-being. I always make it a point to ask if they would like to have a chat, making myself available if they do. Often, a simple conversation is enough to offer encouragement and reassure them that I care and am here to support them whenever needed.”
