GIRL POWER provides fun, interactive well-being workshops for girls
aged 7 - 12 yrs.Our mission is to foster a positive mindset, inner
confidence and resilience in girls at a young age, before they embark
on their teenage years and exposed to the powerful world of social
media. Our workshops are based on positive psychology principles and
delivered by way of fun, creative and engaging activities. Girls come
away from our workshops knowing themselves better, understanding the
power they have over their own lives and with increased social
awareness.
This LEVEL 2 event is aimed at those girls who have previously
completed the half day workshop. The following topics will be
covered:
HEY YOU! - A deeper dive into the ingredients of a healthy
friendship, common friendship issues, what constitutes mean behaviour
and appropriate responses
MIRROR MIRROR - Looking at the way women and girls are portrayed in
the media and learning to embrace and appreciate our own unique
physical qualities
YUM YUM - Understanding the importance of a healthy diet for a happy
mind and body
RELAX - Techniques to manage stress such as mindfulness, learning how
to 'not sweat the small stuff' and looking at situations more
objectively
All of this is explored by way of creative worksheets, vibrant
discussion, active games with props, role play and art/craft. Parents
are given ideas and inspiration for ways to continue their daughter's
well-being journey and adopt simple, yet POWERFUL LIFE-changing
practices at home. A maximum of 20 girls participate in each
WORKSHOP. All participants will receive a GIRL POWER CERTIFICATE at
the end of the Level 2 workshop.
The WORKSHOPS ARE FACILITATED BY THE COMPANY'S FOUNDER, Joni Combe, an
experienced qualified teacher with a passion for positive
psychology. Joni believes it is paramount that girls focus on their
strengths, rather than weaknesses and intentionally create experiences
that result in a positive mindset and inner confidence.
Some comments from parents of past GIRL POWER workshop participants...
"_When my daughter came home Thursday night after your session, she
was so proud of her Girl Power pack, what she had written and what
others had affirmed. I saw after a very long year of tears and temper
a glimmer of self-esteem and confidence I have not seen in such a long
time. Thank you!!!!_” Victoria (parent of school workshop
participant)
_"I was so impressed with how the workshop ran. The activities were
all great fun with a positive and empowering message underlying each
of them. The girls finished the day with tools to help them think more
positively about themselves and how they handle the inevitable
difficulties they face in social situations. Fabulous. I highly
recommend Girl Power workshops!" _Natushka, mother of Josie (9)
_"My daughter and her friend had such a wonderful time today Joni.
They were busy talking about their favourite parts (all of it) and
it's been wonderful to see them put into practice some of the things
they learnt such as their gratitude box. Wish there had been workshops
like this for me when I was young. Thanks for this"_ Jess, mother of
Matilda (11)

supportive behaviours and self value” _Debbie, Primary School
