Event Details

 

Resilient Kids is a workshop is for children 6 to 10 years of age.

It will help the child build the strengths to overcome life’s obstacles and to triumph when threats materialise!

The program is conducted under licence from the International Resilience Institute Sydney (IRIS) and is a unique program of self-development.

The IRIS learning model is based on prominent and recent research in the area of resilience, which tells us two key things:

1.     Resilience is not innate – it can be learnt; and

2.     A person’s resilience increases as one continually applies resilient thinking and behaviors in their everyday lives

IRIS RESILIENCE FUNDAMENTALS workshop is inspired by some of the great authors in this (and related) fields including such notable theorists as Albert Ellis, Tim Beck, Suniya Luthar, Richard Tedeschi, Lillian Comos-Diaz, Anthony Kidman and Karen Saakvitine. However, our program is most influenced by our readings into the works of Martin Seligman, Karen Reivich and Andrew Shatté (someone our team had the pleasure of tutoring under in Pennsylvania some years back).

Through a process of retrospective learning your child will master eight fundamental strengths that will not only improve their resilience but will also help them to retain joy in their life.

IRIS strengths have been inspired by the published works of the American Psychological Society in this area and include…

Strength 1 Making Connections

Strength 2 Managing Icebergs

Strength 3 Learned Optimism

Strength 4 Accurate Thinking

Strength 5 Emotional Control

Strength 6 Keeping it in Perspective

Strength 7 Empathy

Strength 8 Confront Adversity Head On

Each persons learning outcomes in an IRIS RESILIENCE FUNDAMENTALS workshop is very individual as your personal learning outcomes are guided by two private psychometric assessments undertaken before the course commences.
