You may decide you would like to implement MORE than MINDFULNESS in your school, or you may want to do the online on-demand course for you and your children
You can look at MORE than MINDFULNESS Scope and Sequence that was implemented at a Sydney Primary School.
You can read a report from a Primary School where the full MtM program was successfully run and created compelling results. It includes Students’ comments on what they found helpful.
- St Philip Neri Northbridge Primary School – Presentation to parents about the MtM program. The full Program was run in the school in 2016. Read the report here.
- Wellbeing Australia conference – Presentation at Strengths, Circles, Social and Emotional Learning Conference. Read the powerpoint here.
