Peer Counsellors

Our Junior School is fortunate to have peer counsellors from the Senior School who are always welcome visitors to our younger students.

Thanks to careful preparation and planning, the peer counsellors make the most of their time and ensure that the Junior girls are happy and engaged throughout their sessions.

Throughout the Autumn and Spring terms, the peer counsellors have focused their sessions on a range of topics. From activities that promote kindness and anti-bullying, such as games designed to help the girls find common connections with one another, to exercises where the girls annotate self-portraits to spread kindness and use Mindfulness techniques to encourage active listening. Recently, the peer counsellors collaborated with the girls on a project to create their own coronation bunting. They facilitated games and activities that encouraged cross-class collaboration, bringing the students together in a fun and creative way.

It's heartwarming to see the positive impact that these peer counsellors have on our Junior School community.
