Following the success of Childline’s Resilient Minds programme in primary schools, Childline Gibraltar has expanded into secondary schools.

A statement from Childline Gibraltar follows below:

The programme now reaches students from Years 2 to 8. This innovative programme is designed to equip young minds with the essential skills and knowledge needed to navigate life’s challenges with confidence.

In a world where setbacks and disappointments are inevitable, the Resilient Minds programme transforms these challenges into powerful stepping stones for personal growth. Rather than delivering content in traditional assemblies, sessions are conducted on a class-by-class basis, allowing for deeper engagement and tailored support that resonates with each unique group of students.

Participants will dive into a variety of interactive activities, including lively group discussions, role-playing scenarios, and mindfulness exercises. These experiences not only foster emotional intelligence but also create a nurturing community where students can support one another in building resilience.

“Our goal is to nurture a generation of young adults who are not just academically ready, but also emotionally equipped to thrive amid life’s ups and downs,” said Caroline Carter, Chief Executive of Childline Gibraltar. “By instilling the principles of resilience, we empower students to transform challenges into opportunities for success. Every child deserves the tools to flourish, and this programme is a vital step toward a brighter future.”

To further enhance the impact of the Resilient Minds programme, Childline Gibraltar invites companies and individuals interested in supporting this initiative to reach out. Financial donations can make a significant difference in expanding the programme’s reach and effectiveness. Please contact our CEO, Caroline Carter, at [email protected] for more details.
