Cool Kids Program

In Term Four Holy Trinity will be running the “Cool Kids” support program for students from Year 2 - Year 6. The Cool Kids Program is a world renowned cognitive behavioural therapy program developed to teach children and parents skills that address anxiety.

The program helps children to recognise emotions such as fear, stress and anxiety. It helps them to challenge beliefs associated with feeling nervous, and encourages them to gradually engage in fearful activities in more positive ways. There is an additional component for parents that informs them of these principles and also teaches alternate ways of interacting with your child.

The program will run for 9 weeks (1-hour session per week) and will take place during school time. There will be around 6-8 students in a group.

If you think your child would benefit from this program, please email me,  philippa.brearley@cg.catholic.edu.au by next Wednesday. We have also asked teachers to nominate students in their class, who they they think would benefit from the  program. 

We will be hosting a Parent Information Evening in Week 10 for all parents. We will send the MS Teams link for this information session closer to the date, for the participants' parents/carers.
