Colouring pad
“Paint your mood”: creative expression and empowering messages that can open wider conversations.

An information leaflet and the Greek-language bonus PDF “Αποκριάτικες στιγμές σύνδεσης” (Carnival Connection Moments), with ideas for expression and connection.
Book — in the complete pack
“Συνδέομαι σημαίνει σέβομαι κάθε μαθητή μου” by Aphrodite Oikonomakou. A Greek-language book exploring the relationship between educator and student.
Made for the classroom you already have.
You do not need to add another demanding programme to the school day. A poster can start a short conversation. A colouring page can give a child a reason to speak. An activity from the guide can become part of a lesson or the beginning of an idea of your own.
You choose the time, approach and depth according to your students’ ages and needs. Growing Minds expands your resources while respecting your experience and the relationships you have built with them.
The thinking behind the resources
Growing Minds draws on neuroscience, developmental psychology and social and emotional learning. It turns introductory ideas about the brain, emotions and supportive child–adult relationships into prompts for discussion and activities. It is an educational resource, not a therapeutic or diagnostic tool.
From resources to classroom practice
Growing Minds has already been piloted at the 5th Junior High School of Thessaloniki and Green School Komotini.
