Thank you to Gillian and Motus Learning for their Mental Health and School Transition Workshop which took place on Wednesday 1st March for 5th and 6th class. The day was centred around Emotion Identification, Regulation and Management, teaching children about understanding their minds through cognitive behavioural therapy, mindfulness and neuroscience. It was also full of games and activities so it was a fun day for the children while learning about their emotions. It was followed by parents webinar explaining the rationale and methods behind the Workshop.
The workshop and webinar was carried out by Motus Learning who are a research based mental health education provider working alongside University College Cork and the University of Limerick with a program designed by clinical psychologists in consultation with teachers and several university professors.
