Grit for students
School can be...a lot. On top of the social and academic elements, this is a period of time when students are encouraged to explore their identities, express their dreams, and create a world in which they can grow. Grit in Schools will help give them the tools to handle the harder emotions in life, self-regulate, build strong and healthy relationships, and see themselves through a lens of compassion and encouragement.
Topics include:
-
Anxiety
-
Identity
-
Coping Skills
-
Friendships / Relational Aggression
We are now open for bookings for Winter 2024 for in-class Grit Workshops.
LUNCH GRIT
Lunch Grit is a 4-week workshop held at lunch in your kiddo’s school. In it, we un-pack how to be a happier human at school. We find tools for finding calm in stressful situations, we navigate our way through the landmine of tricky friendships, we deal with the pressure of expectations, we laugh - we create - we move our bodies. It’s the perfect break for half-way through the day.
Fall 2023 availability: Wed or Thurs 12:15-1pm
Cost to parents: $60 if no rental cost is charged / $75 if rental cost is charged
Grades: either 3-5 or 6-7
We take care of registration and administration / School PAC takes care of getting the word out to parents

Grit for Parents
Growing up can be difficult and raising someone who is (rapidly!) growing can be difficult too. With Grit, we can learn the skills to regulate our emotions, help our brains, and in turn help our kids when the world feels a little too loud. We run one-off workshops for parents focussing on our kids' mental health as well as our own.

Grit for teachers
You are helping raise a generation of people, and because that job is not an easy one, you should have all the tools in your toolbox that you may need.
In Grit in Schools - Teachers, we'll learn how to assist in the brain-health and emotional wellbeing of the people we teach, and also explore ways in which we can self-regulate and support our own mental health.
