Saint Ignatius College Geelong
On Wednesday 7th August, our Year 8 students participated in a workshop called ‘Mindfulness Through Movement’, facilitated by Jem Fuller and Mitch Barrow.
The students used movement to engage their senses, discover the power of the breath, and assist in emotional regulation. Students gained skills in calming the mind and being in the moment to improve their overall wellbeing and engagement. The program gave them practical techniques of gaining mindfulness, as well as some informative facts on the benefits of mindfulness.
Some of the key messages the students walked away with included:
Thank you Jem and Mitch for engaging our students in your wonderful program.
