Megan shares a letter of introduction below.
Kia ora, Te Raekura Redcliffs School,
My name is Megan. I am a Creative Arts Therapy student on placement at your wonderful school.
What is Creative Arts Therapy?
Creative Arts therapy is a safe, supportive therapy, aimed at building, restoring and maintaining the mental, emotional, physical and spiritual well-being of people of all ages and abilities. Using creative arts i.e, painting, drawing, dancing and connecting with nature the child/learner can express and work through emotions, feelings and problems they are experiencing with the support of the (student) therapist.
If this is something you think a child in your care may benefit from or if you would like any additional information about myself or what creative arts therapy is please contact Rose who will be able to forward your questions or queries to me.

I am very much looking forward to meeting you and working with and alongside your precious tamariki.
Arohanui,
Megan
