Fun With Feelings
This new group programme is for children aged 5-8years who will benefit from learning about managing big feelings, combating anxiety and navigating the emotional world. There are sessions along the way for parents as well.
Superstars / Superchamps
These groups are all about helping prepare children for the next steps of learning. Superstars is K/PP readiness for 2-4 yr olds and Superchamps is for PP - Year 1.

Mealtime Matters
Our Mealtime Matters groups aim to help children with very selective eating. Children are supported to expand their food tolerance through the use of a range of therapeutic approaches (eg SOS, MORE, Social Thinking) as well as through the group dynamic.
The Three R's
Toddler Say and Play
Mindful Movement
Social Teens
Literacy Booster
This group helps children develop their phonemic awareness skills which are the building blocks required for reading and writing skills. Children who struggle to identify the alphabet letter sounds, struggle to identify real rhyming words or find it difficult to take apart and build words. Children will practice these skills to enhance their confidence with reading and writing
Bike Riding
Our group focuses on improving children's bike skills and confidence. This programme helps develop balance and strength in a way that is functional and fun.
Development Squad
Our 'Squad Training' is a movement skills programme for children aged 5-12. The programme is especially for children with motor learning difficulties of any description and helps with development of strength, balance and coordination!
