Nurturing Healthy Minds - Anxiety - Workshop 2

Anxiety is a normal emotion, and all tamariki experience it, however it can impact learning and the ability to participate in school life. Teachers and learning support staff can play an important role in helping learners with anxiety by making them feel safe and supported.

Workshop 1 is for teachers and learning support staff who want to know more about anxiety and what we can do to support our tamariki and rangatahi.

Workshop 2 builds on Workshop 1, providing a deep dive into anxiety and the stress response, and further support strategies to add to your kete. 

Cost: $85 pp or $80 pp for groups of 10 or more (plus GST). Payment can be made online via credit card or via invoice direct to your school.
