Senior Students taught how to keep Calm for Exams

As senior students prepare for the exam block in week nine Personal Development classes have been teaching students the Mindstar Program.  Among other things this program teaches students how to use breathing to relax themselves. Students should prepare for their exams in a clear and detailed way. They should focus on the questions asked and write relevant answers. Their goal should always be to do their best. The use of breathing exercises will help them focus and settle their thinking. The research shows that slowing down and finding their own source of calm can improve a student’s academic performance. During the exam block at lunch breaks Pastor Tim will place the movable labyrinth in the Middle/Senior space. This will help students who would like some quiet time between exams to reflect and find a sense of calm.
