Term 4 News

So it's back to school this week for our school-aged families, and back to work for Speaking of Learning...! We're looking forward to getting into the busy-ness that Term 4 always brings.
 

During the first week of the holidays we ran a successful three-day programme for grades 1 and 2 students, learning about social skills and how to use a four-zone system to recognise and control our feelings and reactions to situations. This is designed to enable students with social skill difficulties to better manage interactions with peers and adults at school and at home.


This term we are excited to be offering a fortnightly support group for parents whose children struggle with ASD, language or learning disorders or literacy difficulties. One of our mums, Britt, has offered to run such a programme; experiencing the need herself for support, she has taken the step to offer the same to parents undergoing similar stresses. Thanks Britt!

Sessions will run on every second Wednesday night, beginning 15th October. There will be a $10 per family cost on the night, and supper is provided. For more information, contact Speaking of Learning... on 9873 7043 or at info@speakingoflearning.com.au.
