My Upper Room

Presenting Tanner’s Manners - teaching your child through interactive lessons and songs to be a Tanner’s Manners Cool Kind Kid®. This programme has been running for 9 years with huge success in the United States.  The recipient of numerous awards, this 4 Module programme is tailor made for pre-teens.   Through interactive lesions, role-play and songs learning social graces becomes fun.   Through this programme, we provide children between ages 6 and 12 with the foundation and the tools they need in order to grow, as their role in society grows.

The programs will teach your child:

• Social Skills – to be comfortable in any social situation
• Good Manners – to respect themselves and others
• Etiquette Rules – how to get along with each other, to be “cool kids with kind hearts.”
• Behaviour around the house – including table manners, telephone skills and “meeting and greeting.”
• Behaviour at school – treating teachers, school employees and peers with respect and consideration.
• Bullying prevention – Redefining “cool,” so kids learn that the “kind” kid is the “cool” kid, not the bully.

The programme includes activity sheets, reference sheets and punt cards.  A completion certificate will be issued. 

Tanner’s Manners Anti-Bullying – A Proactive approach

Students are taught a proactive rather than a reactive approach.  It teaches the child to resist the deception of bullying and helps the child to redefine being ‘cool’.

The activities help children to realise

• They don’t need to be a bully
• They can stand up to a bully
• They don’t deserve to be bullied
• Bullying hurts the bully, not just those being bullied.
• Bullying is the ultimate ‘uncool’
