Tena Koutou Katoa,

I have been out and about the region with training and it’s been fantastic to catch up with regular attendees and meet caregivers attending their first trainings in Whanganui, Stratford, and New Plymouth. I have heard some beautiful examples of aroha and mana that caregivers are showing to their tamariki in care, I’m always motivated and touched by these.

I’m so happy we have seen the shortest day of the year! We celebrated this turning toward spring with Matariki celebrations in New Plymouth where caregivers and tamariki enjoyed lots of delicious kai, stories, and stargazing. Thanks to Steve our exuberant storyteller!

Training

We have new training developed by Caring Families Aotearoa starting next term. I am really excited about the new topics we are offering. Please check out our training calendar below to see details of upcoming courses.

Our first new workshop is “What’s Behind the Behaviour – Healing Centred Engagement”. This newly developed training explores the importance of emotional connection with children. The idea is to parent in a way that meets the behavioural, developmental, and therapeutic needs of the child. This DDP informed workshop has an emphasis on ‘connection with correction’ to provide a secure and safe base for the child. I look forward to seeing you there!
