A free webinar is coming up on Monday 27th March at 8.00pm on "Getting Into the Learning Zone". 

What the webinar is about: 

How does your child approach challenges? Do they often take the easiest option? Do they sometimes give up when learning starts to get tough? Do they dislike the struggle that comes with learning something challenging? 

Our relationship with challenge is one of the key elements of Learnership – the skill of learning. In this insightful and powerful session, James Anderson will show you how you can help your child develop a strong positive relationship with challenge. He’ll show you the practical strategies you can use at home and in school to put your child on a path towards embracing challenges and becoming a skillful learner. He’ll show you how to get your child into their Learning Zone.
