Stage 3 Friendship group with Miss Mel

Over the past 6 weeks our stage 3 girls participated in a friendship group. The group discussed topics such as healthy peer relationships, navigating peer challenges, self esteem, change in bodies and body image.

The girls created items in these groups such as talking sticks, friendship jars and friendship bands.

Each week the girls were able to place a note in an anonymous box with questions or issues they would like to discuss at the following group.

In their last session the girls collectively iced and decorated cupcakes for each other. At the end the girls shared the cupcakes with Miss Mel, Aunty Brenda and Miss Amy.
