Seasons For Growth

"Seasons For Growth" is a program that Pastoral Care Workers can provide for your child if they have been through big changes, loss or grief. A program to reflect in a safe group with a companion, to open up doors of opportunity for self reflection, healing and seeing a future of hope.

This program is to help create a picture of where our emotions and life story might be, have been and where it could be heading.  That no season in life lasts forever.  As abrupt or subtle that it may be, the seasons DO change and so DO our life situations, emotions and feelings

It is an empowering realisation, when you are in a Winter season, to know that you can ride it through because Spring will come.  We may miss the previous seasons of our life, but the bud of new life, new possibilities and hopes is what Spring brings.  Even when Winter may hit again in our life situations, we know we got through the last Winter, it was hard, but it grew us, it gave us skills and strategies, people to press into or just an inner strength that with every down there is an up.  With every change there is a hope and dream.  

Whatever season you are going through in life right now, please press into help if it is Autumn or Winter, and do reflect as you enter Spring and Summer for growth always comes from our reflection and from our outward search for help.

Afternoon Tea

You are invited to drop in for a cup of tea/coffee, cake and a chat.  This is a good opportunity to meet other parents/carers and relax in a friendly environment before picking up your child/children.  Held in the Conference Room, Penney Unit (behind the Canteen).  I look forward to seeing you there.

Due to the early finish on Friday this week (2/7), Afternoon Tea will be from 1:30pm in the Conference room.
