WORKSHOP IS FULL - REGISTRATION CLOSED

The purpose of this workshop is to train interested staff in how to support students by explicitly teaching them how to think and relate socially. ‘What’s the Buzz’ is for children, who for all manner of reasons find it difficult to make friends and fit in socially.

The training day will be a lively, highly practical role play and play-based programme that targets everyday themes:

•·         how to greet, make and keep friends,

•·         how to fit in,

•·         how to read one’s own emotions,

•·         how to read the feelings of others,

•·          how to deal with competition and cope with worry, frustration and disappointment more constructively.

The method of instruction is built on an extensive body of research believed to stimulate social thinking and accomplish powerful outcomes.

The workshop is free for participants however there is a limit of two participants per school
