‘Kimochis’ is a social-emotional learning and character education program. Participants will learn how to:
- recognise and manage emotions,
- demonstrate care and concern for others,
- establish positive relationships,
- make responsible decisions and;
- handle challenging situations constructively.
The Kimochis programs run for 9 weeks throughout school terms.
During the 9 weeks the program is split into 2 units:
- During the first unit (week 1-5) your child will be introduced to the five Kimochis Characters, each with a different personality.
- The second unit (week 6-9) the focus is on the Kimochis Keys to communication that help participants learn how to listen openly, make good choices, be willing to speak in respectful and responsible ways and be open to negotiating problems.
The Kimochis is suitable for 5-8 year olds.
The 5 characters help children explore and manage their big feelings and different behaviours, and with the help of the characters, identify ways to confront any situation in a positive and helpful way.
- Lovey Dove helps with worried feelings and celebrating others!
- Cat can sometimes have cranky feelings but learns to apologise and forgives.
- Cloud can sometimes be unpredictable but is working on words.
- Huggtopus has BIG feelings but sometimes forgets about boundries!
- Bug does not like change, but still looks at the positives!
