At Marysville we are continually growing our mindfulness practice through lessons on gratitude, kindness, perspective, community-building and optimism, to name a few. Evidence of our mindfulness practice can be found throughout the school from our brain breaks in each class, each morning; the Well-being Wednesday lessons; the peace corners in the classrooms where students can take a short, self-initiated break when needed; and our yoga and movement room where students participate in weekly yoga classes.
Well-being Wednesdays
On Wednesdays each classroom takes part in a mindfulness lesson. The topic of these lessons range from mindful tasting, to compassion, to optimism and culminates at the end of the year with a school-wide initiative to give back to our community through student chosen service projects.
