Wonderful to observe how relaxed children were during our clay play nurture group. So many benefits, of clay, relaxed children, fine motor, communication and it releases stress. We notice how focussed they become through shared sustained thinking. @RCDivineMercy

Helping children heal from trauma requires a bottom-up approach.They are developmentally stuck in the brainstem with very little accessing higher brain functions.Working on emotional memories while helping them explore dysregulated feelings & regulate the nervous system🧠🌱

Dyslexic students: High empathy High intuition High emotional intelligence Think outside the box High problem solving skills Unique way of processing information A gift, not a problem!

Co-regulation is a biological priority. The most healing interactions with our pupils take place in connection,not the correction. Small moments.The validation. Understanding. Co-regulation is where it all begins. We need adults who provide emotional & psychological support🧠🌱

Our Saint of the week is St Teresa, known for her devotion to helping others. We thought about being selfless, helping the poorest of the poor. Children engaged in prayer and discussions. Beautiful drawings of her smiling as we carry her smile in our heart. @RCDivineMercy
