Children, Wellbeing & Navigating Change Fundraiser

The Team from Highbury Community House Inc

An evening with Samantha Patel CPsychol (she/her), Registered Psychologist, Chartered Member Institute Organisational Psychology.

As part of Gumboot Friday, we are partnering up with Samantha to bring this amazing talk about supporting children with change & uncertainty. This is certainly what the Pandemic has brought us in bucket loads.

Do any of these sound familiar?

How do I know if my child is behind at school?

What can I do to support my kid(s) not becoming overly worried?

Is it ‘normal’ for my child to ask these questions (insert any question you like)?

Just when I think I know how to deal with this – we have something else go on

Feeling exhausted

Experiencing sudden moments of feeling overwhelmed

Changes in appetite, diet and sleeping patterns

Supporting the wellbeing of children has no easy fix; it is an ongoing journey of connection and communication.

Join Samantha for this interactive face to face session where we will explore the impacts of change and uncertainty (such as Covid) on children and caregivers whilst drawing upon up to date theory and research in this area.

Areas covered will include: -

Why is this Pandemic so hard for us all, especially our children?

Habits and practices to support children to thrive

The crucial Covid lessons for children

Safeguarding children’s wellbeing

All proceeds from this event will go towards I Am Hope. So please come & show your support for such a worthy cause.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
