Children, Wellbeing & Navigating Change Fundraiser
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

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
41% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
57.2% No, I enjoy it
-
1.8% Other - I'll share below
Don't overthink this riddle...
I have a silver sole
but no feet,
I make my living by bringing the heat.
What am I?
