“As always, I was very impressed with the quality of this kit. It is stunning and looks terrific in the classroom. In the past, I have found this kit highly engaging and interesting for Year 7/8s but have realised that that may be because I have always used in a full primary. This year I am in a secondary school environment and the 7/8s weren't as interested or motivated by it, unfortunately. This is not a reflection of the kit itself but may be more about the fact that in a secondary situation, 7/8s are treated as secondary students not as primary/intermediate students. I highly recommend this kit in a full primary setting, but that is probably as far as I would go with it.”

“I was so excited for this kit in our yr 5/6 class. The students were very excited to see the charging station go up and get their own tokens. From there we found the content a little above their current level of understanding and I had to simplify quite a few things. Some parts were too tricky to simplify. The class enjoyed the check in times but many children couldn’t read and/or didn’t understand the charging station cards.”

Please provide 2+ examples of student voice on the kit's impact on them "I love that this allows me to really think about my own self and my values" "I feel more confident in sharing my worries and understand that talking to someone can be beneficial for me and boost my mood up"

Which kit components were the most impactful and why? The self check: Students loved doing this beginning and end of day and it was really helpful in recognising the moods of students so I could alter lessons and recognise what might need to be different to benefit those students who weren't feeling that great.

What impact has this kit had on your classroom community? My tamariki are a generous bunch - they understand the need for helping themselves and each other. Personal experiences remain that, but the students understand that they can help each other without needing to know all the details of someone's experience.

What impact has this kit had on your classroom community? As above

“My Self Confidence is an amazing kit. Tamariki I've taught before ask if I'm using it when they come to visit - they've learned so much about themselves, each other, and how to help when they or someone else is feeling low. The letter template for parents makes this teacher weepy! Such beautiful memories and thoughts about each and every child. This year we've incorporated the kit into a memory book - something for each child to look back on, if in the future they need reminding how much possibility they have, how amazing the class of 2023 was, and how treasured they remain. Thanks so much, Dove, and SchoolKit.”

Please provide 2+ examples of student voice on the kit's impact on them The 'You're more beautiful than you think' video helped me to stop being so negative about my flaw and embrace me as me. " The red zone was an area that I needed to work on, and the skills taught in these lessons helped me to tell my teacher or show my teacher that I was upset and needed some time to get back into the green zone."

Which kit components were the most impactful and why? The videos as my students are quite visual. I also found the 'check my charge' components, the daily check in cards, getting the students to identify their 'superpower'. The reason being is that we were focusing on puberty at the time which was a very intense topic. I felt that this kit was a great support when teaching puberty as the tasks were a fun and interactive way to teach self esteem and being okay with being themselves.

What is the legacy this kit will leave behind on your learners? To focus on the positive things about themselves.

In what ways has this kit helped develop student confidence The check my charge helped me as a teacher identify those students that were in the red zone before they even came to school and help find strategies to support them through the rough days.

How has this kit helped develop student resilience? The red zone sheet helped with my discussions with the tamariki that struggled with resilience. Referring back to the strategies also helped my students use the same strategies and questions with one another. I also ended up with covid and the kids had a reliever (many don't usually cope with this change). Several of my students reminded them of strategies that they could use to pull themselves out of the red zone and be more resilient with the change.

What impact has this kit had on your classroom community? We have camp next term so have included lots of team building activities. We have two students that struggle to manage with their behaviour but I found that their self esteem was incredibly low, the come to school angry or upset. This kit had videos and tasks that helped the other students in my class recognise that these two boys home lives aren't great and to show some compassion or befriend them.

What impact has this kit had on your classroom community? I found that I need to do this kit every year. It def was a game changer and helped me to identify why several of my boys struggle with resilience and it came down to low self esteem about themselves. I have many girls with anxiety and a lot of this is due to social media, and caring about what their peers think.

“The Dove Self Esteem kit is a brilliant way for your students to look at themselves how amazing they are as an individual. I felt that the videos in the kit 'Change on thing' and 'You're more beautiful than you think' were incredibly powerful (especially for my girls that struggle with self worth). The charging station was a huge hit and each morning it was great to see the students do their self daily check. I recommend everyone doing this kit especially around the same time as teaching puberty.”
