The transition from Year 6 to Secondary School is a daunting one for most children - we can help!

Post pandemic we know that more children than ever struggle with their mental health:

Worries include being bullied:

Ditch the Label

How can we help children be more resilient & better prepared for the transition to Secondary School?

Our Transition Workshops for Year 6 children are in an environment where they will feel safe & validated & where everyone is listened to. We address the worries they may have about moving to Secondary School & provide coping mechanisms for difficult situations that may arise.

The course includes:

Understanding anxiety and worry & how to cope

Self security - mental & physical health

Self-esteem & confidence - personal strengths, talents, interests & successes

Awareness of personal space

Passive, aggressive & assertive body language

How to feel assertive

When it comes to children’s mental health, prevention is better than cure. Preparing them for this significant change will also help them with the many other challenges they will inevitably face in life.
