Vibe Kids Project
The Vibe Kids Project is an exciting, unique addition to Vibe Youth services. Vibe Kids takes children on a journey of SELF-DISCOVERY to recognise and acknowledge their own WORTH and VALUE. Focusing on the transition from key-stage 2 education to key-stage 3 the transition from primary to comprehensive education is a significant event in a child’s progression, and should be looked forward to with curiosity, excitement, and enjoyment rather than worry, fear, and dread. Vibe Kids works alongside key-stage 2 provisions to enable a supported transition, the project creates a safe environment where children feel comfortable, relaxed, and valued, and can explore any worries about the next phase of their journey.
Vibe Kids is a six-week group-based project that is delivered twice a week for a duration of one hour and thirty minutes. Delivering twelve bespoke sessions covering specific topics which encourage children to explore their internal self, Vibe Kids is a fun and creative approach to supporting the next steps for children in year 5&6. A positive start to comprehensive education can have long-lasting benefits including a sense of competence, agency and relating to others.
Every child’s experience with educational transition is unique and the support they receive during this period can greatly influence their adjustment and success in their new environment.
It’s all about the Positive Vibes…
