Hi GDT 😀
Below are PDF resources from our guest presenter Leanne Camilleri:
FACE COVID – How to respond effectively to the Corona crisis
Here is a page from The Panic Button so you can get a visual of what I was talking about during our first Wellbeing Wednesday Zoom
You can search “Maggie’s Soothers for Anxious Times” on YouTube to find a series of short videos with some excellent tips for children – and adults too! Again, maybe good for your own children and also the children you are working with. And big kids too!
Here are some resources aligned with our Zoom discussion on 9.9.2020. Check out Lucy Hone’s 3 secrets of resilient people (approx. 16 minutes) filmed at TEDxChristchurch in August 2019. Dr Lucy Hone builds resilience among individuals, communities and organisations.
