Trauma can negatively impact a child's ability to learn and get the best out of their school career. For this reason, we offer tailored consultations for schools, services and families seeking support and guidance for their children.
Helping you understand the best practices for your kids could make a world of difference, giving them the tools to succeed in life.
Take a look at some of the projects we offer, below.
Feeling Just Right
Feeling Just Right
Using sensory activities and foods, this project focuses on helping children discover their ability to regulate themselves at a sensory level.
Sunshine Circles
Sunshine Circles
Enhance children’s emotional wellbeing through playful, cooperative and nurturing activities with key adults.
Children and their group leaders will also join activities to practise positive social interactions.
Sensory Regulation
Sensory Regulation
We help staff better understand trauma responses in children. These are often seen as ‘challenging behaviours’, so we help identify them and provide strategies to support children.
“T had been swearing, hitting out, pushing, kicking, throwing toys, etc. It was evident that he has experienced a great deal of overwhelm this week and has struggled to feel safe in school. He has frequently requested Sunshine Circles nurture activities this week, such as the blanket, the lotion and the Choob and straw.”
Additional Learning Needs Co-ordinator
"Much more settled on a class level – much more cooperative, asking questions and not wandering as much. More engaged in class activities and responding well to all class staff."
