What to Expect
Discover simple, proven tools to help your child respond to big feelings and develop emotional intelligence. This program is designed for parents and carers of children aged 4 to 10 living in Monash. Over six sessions, you will learn how to improve communication, understand your child better, and teach problem-solving skills that last.
Children with higher emotional intelligence tend to have greater success in making and keeping friends, better concentration at school, and are more able to calm down when upset. This program will help you support your child to manage emotions and prevent behavior problems.
Activity Details
The program runs across six sessions held on Mondays from 10:00 to 12:00. Please note there is no session on Monday 9 March 2026 due to the Labour Day public holiday. Attendance at all six sessions is essential as skills build progressively each week.
To ensure you can fully focus on learning and connecting with other parents, children are not permitted at the sessions. This allows for a supportive environment where you can engage fully with the material and discussions.
