We have designed a pilot of this program that I elaborated upon in our last Newsletter. The pilot is based on Michael’s popular “No Scaredy Cats” Parent Program, but modified to ensure it gives leaders & teachers practical methods of dealing with anxious behaviours.

We have held a meeting with the Chiefs of Staff meeting for our Minister and the Minister for Mental Health, Regional Youth and Women Bronnie Taylor seeking support as well. We are awaiting a response.

And finally…..

As we move towards the end of term we hope you continue to provide extraordinary learning opportunities and a feeling of warmth, security and safety for your students and staff. We are here to support you. Look after yourselves.

Best wishes
Phil Seymour
