Topic: Challenging Behaviours Workshop
Most days young people deal with the challenging behaviour, this behaviour can be our own or seen in those around us. This workshop is to assist the Year 7 cohort to be able to identify and understand the types of behaviour that are challenging such as bullying, harassment, dangerous play and risk taking. It aims to assist students to build strategies in how to deal with these behaviours/situations and understand the processes to follow to ask for assistance.
VCE – Vocational Major Students will also attend the workshop and have a reflection worksheet/ pamphlet prepared for the students to complete and take home.
For students not attending the Workshop:
There will be activity sheets on the same topic provided to the students and they will be in a separate classroom with a teacher supervising.
