How have the components within the kit helped develop your student self-confidence? We followed on and used the resources on the dove website.

How have the components of the kit helped develop Student-Teacher communication? Daily check in token was great! Hope to use this next year too.

“My favourite part about the kit was the booklet and the parent letter. It was such an easy book to follow. The charging station was a bit confusing at first as I knew how to set it up but wasn't sure how I would use it in my daily practice. I felt that once we had completed the booklet it become hard to keep going- I got my students to pick a card to work on each day but felt I didn't give this kit justice due to not being sure how to use it to the best potential. The instructions for the start of this kit were really clear and the videos engaging. Had hoped for a bit more around resilience too.”

How have the components within the kit helped develop your student self-confidence? The red, yellow, and green cards were clear and easy for the students to follow. If they were feeling great on that day, it was their challenge to show great values and empower their classmates.

How have the components of the kit helped develop Student-Teacher communication? Daily check ins, The journal.

“We have been practicing mindfulness all year and it was been a school focus, so the kids really resonated with this kit. The confidentiality of the token system meant that I was able to check in with them without it being obvious to their peers. As it was term 4 when we started this, it felt a bit rushed but that's just because how crazy the term was. Looking forward to seeing how I can implement this self regulating system next year. Thanks School Kit!”

How have the components of the kit helped develop Student-Teacher communication? Allowed my pre-service teacher who lead a few lessons to engage with the students.

“The various components can be easily adapted to address various children's levels of ability and understanding. The workbook allowed students some privacy as they developed their understanding.”

How have the components within the kit helped develop your student self-confidence? This kit has given us direction, focus and shared terminology. We had the Life Ed bus also, and the programmes supported each other. It also helped to clarify my own thinking and beliefs around Self Esteem and the role it plays in every interaction.

How have the components of the kit helped develop Student-Teacher communication? The check-in tokens have been super-effective. Great way to check on what's going on for kids if they're in the red. The charging station look so impressive on the wall. We haven't yet put it to its fullest use, but I'll be keeping most of my kids.

“Thank you for giving us the opportunity to work with this kit. It's excellent. I would recommend that teachers use it in the first part of the year to give plenty of time to bed in the concepts - which are fantastic, and deserve to be dug deeply into. We used in in Term 4, and have been scrambling a bit to complete it in time to write a review. BUT because I'll have most of my kids back next year, we'll be able to carry on. I love the online support material. There is so much to this programme - and the way it is designed, teachers still have choice and therefore ownership. Well done School Kit and Dove.”

How have the components within the kit helped develop your student self-confidence? The letters provided a way for students to see themselves through someone else's eyes, and made them feel valued for their abilities.

How have the components of the kit helped develop Student-Teacher communication? The journal was a great way to look at their whole selves. It was interesting to see the difference in their writing on days where they were struggling to regulate emotions. We had a busy term which also influenced this. Great discussions were generated.

“Great kit for any time of the year, and we will probably use parts again at the start of school in 2022. I loved the letters - great for the kids to see how they are valued. Some emotional maturity is needed for this kit, but most learners were very receptive.”

How have the components within the kit helped develop your student self-confidence? Self confidence increased a lot. Initially, students had a 'red day' often but after some processing, the children's well-being seemed to have improved and they seemed a lot happier.

How have the components of the kit helped develop Student-Teacher communication? We used the charging station every day for all of term 4. Each day the children did their tokens and took a corresponding card. We talked about the cards as a class or in buddies, explaining what they meant and how to take action on the ideas.

“I really loved this kit - especially the charging station. My children responded really well to it and the information on the cards was very relatable for children and generated excellent classroom discussion. There were many times when issues came up and I used the cards that were applicable to help give the children strategies to work through the issue. A few weeks ago, a close family member passed away unexpectedly. I shared with my class my feelings and talked about how feeling sad is a part of the process. It blew me away because so many children came up to me privately, checked in if I was ok and let me know they were thinking about me. A card we talked about a lot was, "You don't have to be right there to be there for someone."I saw the children acting out the directions of this card. Developing empathy is always a challenge and I found this resource an excellent way to build on these strategies. Because of the age of my students (year 4), some of the content was a challenge for them from the booklet. However, it is a resource I will keep using and I think with time, students will learn how to monitor their well-being in a deeper way.”
