Seasons for growth is a well-researched and respected early intervention education programme used in support of 6-18 year olds who have experienced a loss or major change in their family through death, parental separation or divorce, migration, imprisonment, fostering, relationship break-down or … View moreSeasons for growth is a well-researched and respected early intervention education programme used in support of 6-18 year olds who have experienced a loss or major change in their family through death, parental separation or divorce, migration, imprisonment, fostering, relationship break-down or any similar significant change.
It was written by Anne Graham, an Australian professor of Childhood Studies at Southern Cross University, NSW in 1996 and has been implemented in New Zealand since then. Since its beginning the programme has supported over 300,000 children and adolescents in New Zealand, Australia, Singapore, Scotland, Ireland, England and Wales.
It is based on the belief that change and loss are part of life and grief is a normal response to these losses.
It is also based on the Tasks of Grieving model of William Worden and it uses the metaphor of the natural seasons as a vivid, symbolic and familiar framework for connecting and experiences of grief.
The programme runs over 8 one-hour weekly sessions. Pre-arranged small groups of similarly aged children or young people meet together for these 8 sessions. They are facilitated by screened, police- vetted and trained volunteers, known in the programme as “Companions”. These groups are mainly run in schools and usually during school hours, but sometimes after school. Many schools in Taranaki are familiar with this work and request to have the groups running for their students on a regular basis. The programme involves activities and discussion on topics including change, feelings, personal stories and self-care.
Groups run throughout Taranaki during each school term and each year there are 150 -200 youngsters participating in a group somewhere in the province.
There is currently a recruitment drive for volunteers to train as Companions for 2024
Important personal attributes include:
• Enjoy and care about children and young people, being fully committed to their safety
• Good listener and adaptable
• Be a team player, comfortable in group work and willing to learn
• Have some experience of change, loss and grief
• Have 2 hours a week for each 8-week program you facilitate.
• Have independent transport
• Police vetting requirement
Companion training for the Children’s and Young People’s Programme is being planned to run over two days on Friday 22nd and Saturday 23rd March, in New Plymouth and there is an application process required prior to this.
Ongoing support and training for Companions is an integral part of this programme.
There is also training available for people interested in facilitating the Adult and Parent programmes as well as the LTI Programme for 5 – 18-year-olds living with loved ones who have serious illness.
If you are curious to learn more about any of the programmes and / or you are interested in becoming a Companion, please contact Wendy at Volunteering New Plymouth on 06 758 8986, Email: admin@vnp.nz or Ph / Text 022 571 4228 to take the next step.

The gentle fascia release through Bowen can be helpful with a huge range of health challenges, so it is worth giving Bowen a go.
Bowen Therapy can be given through a thin layer of clothing, and is very gentle. No manipulations are done. It is deeply relaxing, and generally pain is reduced after a session. Acute injuries, such as twisted ankles or shoulder injuries, tend to heal very quickly with a couple of Bowen sessions.
If you'd like to give it a go, this introductory offer of just $50 for a session of around an hour, will be a great opportunity for you. Reach out through here, or via facebook 'Holistic Health Taranaki', or contact me by phone 067520503 or 0275228592.
