What Children’s Brains Need To Develop Healthy Emotional Responses- UHub Educator Empower U Session

Join us for a FREE Empower U session focused on understanding what’s happening in the brain when emotions feel big — and how we can better support tamariki to reason, regulate, and relate.

Designed specifically for teachers, teacher aides, SENCOs LSCs and professionals working with children! These engaging sessions aim to extend your knowledge and skills to support the diverse needs of your students.

Join us for this valuable opportunity to enhance your knowledge and connect with fellow educators!

Facilitated by the knowledgeable Maria McKenzie (Manager of the Resource Teachers of Learning and Behaviour service), this session is designed to be practical, supportive, and easy to understand — helping you feel more confident in responding to children’s emotional needs.

Let’s grow our understanding together. 💚

✨ Come along to learn, share, and be inspired.
