A few weeks ago, we finished up a 4 part series of Building Your Bounce with a group of educators. This training not only looks at supporting your resiliency, but it understands the importance of those working with children having strong resiliency to do the work that they do!
One of the activities had participants share some words of wisdom – anything they would like to share with others that could help support their resiliency. This group had some great messages to share; you can find them in the gallery of images within this post.
Our next 4 part series will take place on Fridays in May (3, 10, 17, 24). This series is in-person at our Lindsay office from 10 am – 12 pm. Registration is required at all 4 sessions to receive the certificate. Registration will close this Friday, April 26, 2024 at 12:00 pm (noon); you can register here. You can find more information in the details on the registration form. If you aren’t available to attend during the day, the next evening session planned will take place on Monday evenings in November.
