Social Skills Group: 'We Thinkers' - for ages 5-8

A fun and supportive group where children can learn, practise and build confidence in everyday social situations. Through play, group activities and interaction with other children, we help children develop skills for making friends, joining in, communicating with others and navigating social situations. Children will have opportunities to practise: • Taking turns and sharing with other children • Listening and responding to others • Joining in and participating in group activities • Making and building friendships • Understanding how other people may be feeling • Expressing their own feelings, ideas and needs • Working through disagreements and finding solutions together • Building confidence and self-awareness in social situations Activities are designed to be engaging, practical and age-appropriate, giving children opportunities to learn through play and real interactions with their peers. This group runs for 90 minutes over a four day period during the school holidays. Your child will be allocated into one of three groups (Group 1: 9.30-11.00), (Group 2: 12.00-1.30), (Group 3: 2.30-4.00). Please email your preference in time to [email protected] prior to the event.
