Hello LynburnPS and ELC P7's! Our last school for the academic year. Coach arrived at 1245, they're now having lunch, then up to dorms, make beds and outside to meet their instructors.

Scripting we are implementing following training with Scottish Mediation Having the right words, used in the right way, can help to increase empathy and reduce shame 👍

We put on an immersive sensory experience for judges at the COSLA finalist presentation. Bubbles, relaxing spray, tapping, low lighting, and a wave noise machine #RegulateRelateReason

Thank you Belle and Gail for your visit today. To quote one of our Primary 4 "This was the best day of my life" #Therapet CanineConcernTrust Gail Clark

Today, we examined anxious thoughts. Pupils were open, honest, and reflective. Understanding and challenging anxious thoughts can help us to remember that thoughts aren't facts #Anxiety #CopingStrategies #AnxiousThoughts

What an honour to be invited along to watch a powerful performance in celebration of #InternationalPeaceDay2023 at the Scottish Parliament. Our peer mediators did a great job talking to MSPs about their roles at Lynburn 🕊

So proud of our peer mediators who were voice overs for this clip ✨

A lovely way to end the term using the kitbag to explore emotions, support mindfulness, and fuel self-compassion #KitBag #mindfulness Liz Cain

We thoroughly enjoyed our evening with #PhilippaPerry laughing, reflecting, and connecting. Some great tips on challenging our inner narratives and choices. Thank you Philippa_Perry can't wait to read your new book 💞

"It has been useful talking about different behaviors & why they happen. Advice and tips on how to help myself and my kids have helped." What a wonderful group of p1 parents who have bravely been learning & talking about attachment, family dynamics, and healing #FamilyWellbeing

An inspiring and uplifting event this afternoon as we learnt about The Art of Brilliance. Looking forward to taking forward the 2% mindset that will encourage, believe and achieve in our school. Thank you Martin Burder 🌟✨️

A great illustration from a p7 pupil showing where emotions and anxiety can show up on the body as a physical sensation.

Our peer mediators looked at how they could develop purposeful scripting to use with younger children in the playground. They are so skilled in their roles, and they knew exactly what they needed to do to make it work #Proud #PupilLeadership Scottish Mediation Wellbeing In Fife

Seasons for Growth Parent's program today's focus was on the importance of self-care. I made up wellbeing packs for parents. Great feedback: "I have learnt a lot about myself and ways to help my daughter." Wellbeing In Fife Seasons for Growth

Amazing start to the #TakingGoodCare conference. "The opposite of the experience of stress is the experience of kindness." Fascinating learning about the physiological impact kindness has on our health Dr David R Hamilton (he/him) Wellbeing In Fife

Very proud to be part of this team, bringing #DaringVentures to 40 staff in Fife Council this week & next. We've had brave conversations about what it means for us human beings to be biologically wired for relationships - and what happens when systems resist this knowledge.

I was training a new cohort of peer mediators today. When discussing what qualities and skills mediators needed, one pupil said, "a colourful mindset." I asked what that meant, and they told me it was being understanding and comfortable with different emotions 👍 Scottish Mediation

Lynburn Primary felt so proud to receive #TheLittleIceberg resources which were the creative vision of Anam Alba and brought to life by Brett (who is taking the photo). connected baby Suzanne Zeedyk Siobhan Argyle 🎶❤️ Jen La Trobe 💜 Fiona Larkin Wellbeing In Fife
