Calmer community + calmer children
= calmer classrooms!
Anxiety and stress can make it difficult to establish and maintain quality relationships.
Those relationships are vital for families, communities and schools to function.
We know that parents, teachers and students alike are experiencing and managing life pressures and challenges at any point in time. Young eyes are always watching how we act and react – how we role model impacts and influences how children and young people interact and behave at school.
Some practical tips and support strategies can assist all of us on how to deal with anxiety and stress. We need everyone to be at their best.
That’s why we’re bringing in Dr Jodi Richardson for our 2024 E-Conference.
