POSITIVE SCHOOLS 2010 CONFERENCE WORKSHOPS

 

NINE WORKSHOPS: NINE OPPORTUNITIES TO DEVELOP A SOLUTION FOCUSED APPROACH TO WELLBEING

 

The 2010 Positive Schools conference will contain six distinct 90 minute workshops by NINE distinct professionals across a range of topics.

 

Delegates will have the opportunity to develop a whole school integrated approach to positive social behaviour, to develop successful protective behaviours across all students within their schools; to learn about successful programs designed to prevent drug and alcohol abuse and to promote positive body image among students.  Moreover, delegates will have the opportunity to learn more about the importance of the social and emotional evaluation of their students and staff and last, but certainly not least, a sixth workshop offers delegates the opportunity to develop improved skills to effectively manage their own stress and enhance wellbeing.
