Language of Friendship for Maroondah Early Years Centres

Please note: This is a private workshop for members of the following Early Years Centres in Maroondah who are part of a pilot project with Maroondah City Council:

• Choklits Childcare Ringwood
• Community Kids Bayswater Early Education Centre
• Kurboroo Kindergarten
• Lipscombe Park Kindergarten
• Maroondah Occasional Care
• North Ringwood Preschool (The Y Kinder)

Parents will learn language & strategies to support their child to create healthy, feel-good friendships. This session will review concepts taught at URSTRONG Schools through our Friendology curriculum to reinforce a common “language of friendship” including:

• The 4 Friendship Facts
• The Friend-o-Meter
• The Friend-o-Cycle
• Friendship Fires vs Mean-on-Purpose

Parents will also receive access to a free URSTRONG Family membership that includes hundreds of activities, videos, and articles that are available to you and your child!

This session is for ALL AGES! We will be addressing how friendships change & evolve, providing strategies for all ages – even adults.

Younger children are invited to bring along a soft toy for role-playing activities and there will be an opportunity to ask questions at the end of the session!
