Overview

Overview

Week Twelve supports students in exploring peaceful ways to manage conflict, big feelings, and everyday challenges through calm, creative, and reflective activities. Students begin with Peace Pals, a simple and supportive role-play experience where they practise using kind words and calm solutions to solve small problems, helping them understand that disagreements can be worked through gently. They then move into Conflict Cool-Down Posters, creating drawings or reminders of the strategies that help them feel calm when things go wrong, building emotional awareness and personalised regulation tools they can use throughout the year.

The week continues with Freeze and Think, a movement-based mindfulness game that teaches students the power of pausing, breathing, and choosing calm actions even during moments of excitement. The week concludes with Peace Pebbles, a touching, creative activity where students decorate a pebble with peaceful colours and gift it to someone, reinforcing the idea that kindness and generosity can bring harmony to relationships. Together, these activities help children understand that, just like Mercury, a planet of extremes, balance, calm choices, and compassion, can help them navigate strong emotions. Week Twelve strengthens empathy, emotional regulation, kindness, and problem-solving, giving students lifelong tools for creating peace within themselves and their community.
