Eighteen girls and boys age 6 to 8 years had great fun participating in the Relax kids programme in St Peters GAA Clubrooms Warrenpoint. The children were presented with certificates on Monday past, in recognition of successfully completing the six week Wizards Adventures which helps to build children’s inner confidence to be the best they can be.
The children were invited to come on a wand-er ful magical adventure each week. They learned how to use positive thoughts to help themselves feel good, help others and reach their full potential. They enjoyed games, movement, story-telling, breathing exercises, peer massage, affirmations and relaxations. Relax kids’ classes’ have been shown to help with focus, concentration, creativity, listening skills, self-esteem and sleep.
Eilish Burns, Relax kids coach facilitated the programme supported by Katrina Kernan, Health and Wellbeing Officer, Mary Walsh and Linda O Hare, members of St Peter’s GAA Health and wellbeing group. This project was supported by the CLEAR program and introduced in St Peters as part of their GAA Healthy Club project.
