The Zones of Regulation has been working closely with the South Australia Department for Education’s Self-Regulation Service (SRS), which is an innovative multi-disciplinary program to support social emotional learning development, to implement The Zones across the state. The Carlton School partnered with local Aboriginal artist Mali Isabel to create beautiful Zones of Regulation murals that celebrate learners’ cultures, feelings, and creativity.
The collaboration between the Carlton School and local communities exemplifies how culturally responsive practices can enrich the learning experience. These murals not only beautify the school environment but also serve as visual tools that reinforce emotional awareness and regulation skills, encouraging learners (and the grown-ups who support them) to reflect on their feelings in a way that honors and connects to their identity.
The project attracted the attention of the local television station…we’re delighted to share their work with The Zones community!
