Over six weeks, Year 5 and 6 students at Gulargambone Central School took part in Barnardos Rock and Water program, facilitated by Luu and Ziona.
Through a safe, engaging and creative environment, students were supported to strengthen important skills in resilience, emotional regulation, confidence and communication, while building positive relationships with their peers.
The impact was reflected in the students’ own words, with many sharing how the program helped them feel more confident, comfortable speaking up and better able to manage their emotions.
Programs like Rock and Water show the importance of creating spaces where children can feel supported, connected and confident in themselves and their communities.
