"Strong as a Bear with Lissi": Resilience Training for Children at a Klagenfurt Primary School
Published
At VS 8 Dr. Karl Renner-Schule in Klagenfurt, a special project for the youngest pupils is currently underway. The resilience and assertiveness training is called "Strong as a Bear with Lissi" and is aimed at children in primary school.
Resilience means that people are better able to cope with difficult situations. In this training, children learn to deal with pressure, conflicts, or changes and to cope well with their feelings. Self-confidence and the ability to stand up for oneself also play an important role.
The training shows that schools in Austria are increasingly promoting emotional and social skills. For many parents and teachers, it is important that children learn early on to set boundaries and to seek help when they need it.
The project in Klagenfurt is an example of how educational institutions can support children's well-being in everyday school life. Further information about the course and results of the training has not yet been published.
