Many hands make light work! Bounce Back! This Term, we have commenced the ‘Bounce Back!’ wellbeing and resili-ence program across the school. This program addresses the environ-mental building blocks and the personal skills for fostering resilience in children and young people. The program focuses mainly on the teaching of coping skills to help children and young people respond positively to the complexity of their everyday lives. In other words, children are taught how to ‘bounce back’ after experiencing sadness, difficulties, frustrations and hard times. ‘Bounce Back’ will co-exist with our ’You Can Do It!’ and ’Healthy Relationships’ programs.

“Together We Achieve More”

The Woomelang Weekly

The ‘Bounce Back!’ acronym we are learning is as follows:

BBad times don’t last. Things always get better. Stay Optimistic.

OOther people can help if you talk to them. Get a reality check.

UUnhelpful thinking makes you feel more upset.

NNobody is perfect – not you and not others.

CConcentrate on the positives (no matter how small) and use laughter.

EEverybody experiences sadness, hurt, failure, rejection and setbacks sometimes. They are a normal part of life. Try not to personalise them.

BBlame fairly–how much of the event was because of you, and how much was due to circumstances?

AAccept the things you can’t change, but try to change what you can first.

CCatastrophising exaggerates your worries. Don’t believe the worst possible picture.

KKeep things in perspective. It’s only one part of your life.
