Maria & Bryan, John age 5, Haileybury College

With both of our girls attending Shine’s 7-10 year old program, our son, John, was happy to have the opportunity to attend the Junior Resilience and Confidence Masterclass.  He loved it from the very first day and was so excited to share what was covered in each class. From our perspective, it provided wonderful reinforcement of the life lessons and skills we teach in our home, but in a supportive and fun atmosphere with his peers.  From accepting defeat gracefully to using table manners, he was eager to share each of his lessons and practice them during the week.  Towards the end of the term I explained that since we are moving overseas his last class was quickly approaching. His response, “Mom, do you mean I will never get to go back to Shine ever in my whole life?”
