Well done to our 8 staff members who took part in an empathy exchange. This is part of a whole-school initiative for Santa Sabina to achieve a Bronze award for empathy endorsed by the organisation Narrative4. This charity focuses on building the essential social skill of empathy - putting yourself in someone else’s shoes.
These workshops are also being run with our 3rd year students throughout their well-being modules with Ms. Bradshaw. The exchange yesterday allowed teachers to share stories with one another about ‘A Happy Moment’ in their lives. We all enjoyed a wide range of memories including football, field triumphs, Australian sunsets, American reunions and Christmas concerts!
Thanks to Mr. O’Sullivan, Ms. Cotter, Ms. McAvoy, Ms. Bradshaw, Ms. Fitzpatrick, Iníon nic an Bhaird, Ms. Meaney and Ms. Byrne for giving up their time to get involved. Leaders in empathy! 😊 @narrative4ireland
