Kia ora koutou katoa, nga mihi mahana ki a koutou i tēnei taima Matariki

Greetings to you all, warm acknowledgements this Matariki season.

The winter woolies, pōtae/hats, scarves and thermal underwear are in good use.  Watercress is in season so the boil ups are frequent.  In June/July, we have many family birthdays for us, so way too many cakes to eat but why not, after all, Matariki is a time for Rejoicing, Remembering and Renewal…

TRAINING

FACE TO FACE

Term 3 will have me delivering face-to-face training in Whangārei and Kaitaia-please come and join us, to grow our collective knowledge of therapeutic parenting.

ONLINE

I will also be hosting the online training topics “What’s Behind the behaviour?” and “Difficult behaviours”.
