Overview

Watch & read

Week Three continues to nurture confidence, imagination, and emotional growth through a blend of leadership, creativity, movement, and self-love. Students begin the week with Follow the Leader, a playful favourite that allows each child to step into a leadership role while also practising attentive listening and teamwork. They then channel their creativity through My Dream Day, drawing and sharing what their perfect day looks like, helping them express their interests, hopes, and personal joys in a positive, supported environment.

‍

The week then shifts to imaginative movement and self-esteem-building through two complementary activities. Off to the Big Game invites children into a story-based adventure filled with stretching, balancing, and fun physical movements that strengthen coordination while bringing the narrative to life. The week concludes with Self-Love Heart Drawing, a gentle, meaningful activity in which students reflect on what makes them special and draw a heart filled with their positive qualities. Together, these activities help children explore who they are, build confidence in leading and expressing themselves, and strengthen both physical and emotional awareness, all while fostering connection, joy, and a supportive classroom community.
