Supporting Big Emotions - Online
Sept 4th 2026

Understanding and Responding to Behaviour - Online

Explore how we can look beneath behaviour, respond rather than react, and support children with clear, relational and developmentally appropriate boundaries.
Join the session and go away with:
• A better understanding of what children may be communicating through their behaviour
• Practical tools for responding rather than reacting in challenging moments
• Greater confidence in setting and holding clear, appropriate boundaries
