Peter has mentioned that the TYs could do a bucket collection around Greystones during Wellbeing week. Probably for Pieta House considering that's where we hope to get the Amber flag from?

There's a campaign called "I weigh" which was started by Jameela Jamil (actress/presenter). She started it on the back of a photo she saw of the Kardashians with each of their weights attached to it. She says the aim is not necessarily to promote body positivity but "life positivity" and to encourage people to be grateful for and proud of the things they have/do/are, and not to feel their worth lies in their appearance. The idea is to choose a photo of yourself and write down words around it that relate to aspects of your life you are grateful for/proud of/that make you happy. It could be a nice exercise to do, it doesn't have to include photographs, it could just be done on coloured paper etc.

Is it worth asking Happy Pear as speakers? Before they were known they came into schools I was in for free but those days are gone. But can ask again?

We were discussing ideas for well-being week in Third Year today and some of their ideas for Well Being Week were - dog therapy! ( https://www.irishtimes.com/news/education/trinity-students-swap-books-for-barks-with-dog-therapy-1.1773870 ) Have fresh air breaks and or gardening  - Have Nap times - A wall where you had to write down your problem or secret - Break after every class or music breaks in class - Create a chill out zone or room with music to chill in - Quiet room but not a classroom - Art Therapy workshops eg Bob Ross direction - Drop everything and read ( 3rd years miss the time to just read quietly at school ) - Wear comfortable clothes that week ...

We did a lovely thing for staff in my previous school - our Art room looked out over the sea (as ours does too!) and we allocated time one day for teachers to call up when they were free to paint/sketch the view or anything else they liked.

1. Create a "wellbeing strategies" wall (can think of a better name!!) where students/staff can share what they to do to help/improve their wellbeing and share tips/advice. Like the Wellbeing wall but with a more positive and proactive slant.
