If you are looking for some great PL on well being the ⁦@PositiveSchools⁩ conference will be back next year - and I highly recommend it! Here is my initial reflection from an outstanding three days. linkedin.com/posts/alexandr…

@DrRobyn_Miller “Change happens at the speed of trust” @PositiveSchools

Key takeaway from this morning @PositiveSchools we need more dogs in education - Paw Pals #wellbeing

Why equity is at the heart of well-being? with @pasi_sahlberg @PositiveSchools

We must honour students emotional reactions. If it matters to them, it matters. @PositiveSchools @drhelenstreet

What makes a great time, great? Autonomy Relationships Competency How can we leverage these needs? @PositiveSchools @drhelenstreet

We need to think about the spaces between us, the contextual well-being - not just individual well-being. @PositiveSchools @drhelenstreet

How can we support well being in action? @PositiveSchools @drhelenstreet

Have we unintentionally built a culture where well-being in schools is ‘done’ to our young people? Introducing part 1 of our 3 part series on student well-being. Sharing some of our thinking, what research can tell us and the questions we are asking. linkedin.com/posts/independ…

@GregThurlow @SAISSingapore @hayden_viles @PethRich @NZPEteacher @BenShields2 @RavenPhysed @All_thingsPE Such a good way to start a Friday - Awesome work!

Starting to work with our new Student Well Being Ambassadors this week. Project #1: Students will complete an inquiry into different models of well being and make suggestions for our context. #studentagency #inquiry #studentvoice #Wellbeing

@Brendan_Austin @GregThurlow @All_thingsPE @MattJ_PE @The_Peth28 @Alby278 @PE_GearShed @NZPEteacher @CeliaFleck @Anne500 I’ve just finished planning for a G7 bonding day, tricky with social distancing. This is what we have: Full class games: Wink Murder, Bang, Copy cat. Then problem solving in bubbles: Smoke signals,Tallest tower & Egg drop. Plus a cheeky mintie wrapper challenge thrown in there.

@GregThurlow @All_thingsPE @MattJ_PE @The_Peth28 @Alby278 @PE_GearShed @NZPEteacher @CeliaFleck @Anne500 @AlexSmith_KC Always enjoyed the river crossing

@MBIEgovtnz I am just wondering is there going to be more spaces made available in MIQ - there appears to be no availability from now until 15th Dec?

Warning - the Managed Isolation Allocation System is becoming fully booked prior to Christmas. If you do not already have a voucher, you may not be able to return on your preferred date. allocation.miq.govt.nz
