We hope this email finds you well. We are excited to share an upcoming webinar all about Supporting our kid's to thrive and grow into great adults on the 4th of July and then a webinar all about how we can strike a little work-life balance as busy parents on the 7th of August.
Both of these have been designed by the Real Parents team who with a background in psychology, education, and social work provide one-on-one parent coaching and facilitate parenting programmes in Canterbury and nationally online - including Tuning in to Kids, Tuning into Teens, Incredible Years, and Incredible Years Autism - some of which we received funding from MoE to provide.
We're reaching out to share these details with a few kura who we believe have a community that could truly benefit from these online sessions. We're all about finding new and exciting ways to share the work we do with the people who might need it the most - let's work together to make a positive impact on the wellbeing of our ākonga. We've attached a flyer relating to both of these sessions if you decide to share.Webinar Details:
