2-Day Training in AWE and WONDER (27th & 28th November 2024) (10am to 4pm)

This training will provide participants with an understanding of the significance of the creative instinct and its impact on child mental well-being. Participants will receive hands-on “tools” to use in the classroom and at home, suitable for all children, including those with special educational needs. The aim is to deepen self-understanding, promote self-acceptance and self-worth, and inspire children to be curious, which is crucial for the development of the scientific and creative mind.
