Wiseguys
Senior Primary Curriculum
Our young boys are at a crucial stage during their Upper Primary years as they enter early adolescence. Many of the issues that were once delayed until early teen years, are now a strong influence in these late primary years. Issues concerning peer groups, friendship conflicts, body image and self esteem concerns and social media are at the forefront as boys navigate who they are and their place in their tribe.
In response to this trend, Sharon Witt has written a ten week program that can be delivered to a group of young boys in a school setting or similar space.

A downloadable set of Curriculum files and handouts for students ready to be printed

“The Wise-guys Program focuses on social and emotional well-being giving our school boys an opportunity to extend their current skills and learn practical ways to combat issues of self-esteem, managing their feelings, undoing unhelpful thinking patterns, negotiating friendships, understanding their own strengths and talents while simultaneously building a sense of belonging and care for one another as we celebrate that they are loved and valuable. Seeing the improvement this 10 week Wise-guys Program can make on a child’s outlook and watching them thrive as they learn to be the very best version of themselves is just incredible.”

“I just wanted to let you know that our grade 5/6 teacher has had a look at the curriculum and he can’t praise it highly enough. We were going to only teach about half the curriculum initially but he has now allocated time to teach all the units. I just thought you might want some very positive feedback.”
