Seasons for Growth® Program for Yrs. 3 – 6 (Loss & Grief)
Change and loss are issues that affect all of us at some stage in our lives. These times can be very challenging. At Miami SS we are pleased to be able to provide the evidence-based education program called Seasons for Growth. This program supports children to understand and respond well to the issues they experience as the result of a death, separation, divorce or other significant change events and loss. Children learn that change is part of life, naming and caring for feelings, problem-solving, making good choices and developing support networks.
In term 3, I will facilitate Seasons for Growth for a small group of years 3&4 and/or 5&6 students, depending on interest. They will attend 8 weekly sessions of 50 minutes during normal class time. Each child is given a journal to record their experience and learning during the program. There is no cost to parents/carers.
If you think your child would benefit from Seasons for Growth, I invite you to nominate them for this upcoming program (a brief explanation for your nomination is helpful). You can do this by contacting me at [email protected]
