Wellbeing and Engagement 

I have included a number of links in this weeks newsletter to resources which families can access to find information which parents/carers may find useful during this time. 

Professional help for families 

You know your child best. Many things have changed for us this year. 

If you’re worried about your child's level of anxiety, consider seeking professional help. Here are some places to start:

  • your child’s teacher or Sonya OBrien.
  • your child’s GP or paediatrician, who will be able to refer you to an appropriate mental health practitioner.
  • your local children’s health or community health centre.

If your child is aged 5-12 years, they can talk with a Kids Helpline counsellor by calling 1800 551 800, or using the Kids Helpline email counselling service or the Kids Helpline web counselling service.
