Straight away it engages students and helps some students to wake up in the morning!
It also helps other students who are very energetic to settle and focus on the day ahead. Miss Richardson
My favourite part is the meditation and flexibility because we get to relax our minds
and focus on our breathing and I like the different stretches. Maya

The program encourages students to work as a team, supporting and extending each other to achieve a common goal.
