22. ACTIVITY ONE: OUR FOREST

23. The roots – What are the principles and values that we want to
live by?
The bark – What will protect us and how will we care for
ourselves and the others?
The trunk – What measures of support are needed before
conflict arises? Who can give support? To whom?
The branches – What are the resources needed? Do we need to
reach out of our group to find these resources?
The leaves – What positive energy are we searching for? How
will we see that we are thriving and growing?
The fruits – What results will we get? How can we collect them?
How can we best learn together?

24. Step 1 (5 min)
Participants are reminded of the myth of Minotaur, the labyrinth and Ariadne’s
ball of string. They are facilitated to discuss briefly and trigger a connection of
the labyrinth and the conflicts at school.
Step 2 (40 min)
One in each group will be given a card which describes the context of a conflict
happening within the school community. They decide all together which of the
cues relate to the scenario and they leave the rest aside. Then they discuss
why they chose the specific cards with your group members and try to
remember the steps towards resolution.
Step 3 (5 min)
All groups sit in the big circle in jumbled order. The trainees with the conflict
scenario take a ball of string and connect the conflict to the cues which lead to
its resolution in the order the actions should be taken. (A colourful web should
be created)
Step 4– Debriefing
Ariadne’s
ball of
string
