SOCIAL SKILLS GROUP
Helping Children Build Social Skills & Confidence
A fun and supportive social skills group for children aged 3–10, designed to help children communicate, connect, build confidence and develop positive relationships with their peers.
Through engaging, play-based activities in a small-group environment, children can practise important social and emotional skills in a supportive setting.
Helping Children Build Social Skills & Confidence
Every child develops social skills in their own way. Our social skills group provides a welcoming environment where children can practise communicating, interacting and building relationships with other children.
Through structured and play-based activities, children are supported to develop practical skills that they can use at school, at home and in everyday social situations.
Communication
Developing confidence in expressing ideas, needs and feelings.
Friendship
Learning how to connect with peers and build positive relationships.
Confidence
Creating opportunities for children to participate, practise and feel successful.
Emotional Awareness
Supporting children to recognise and manage emotions in social situations.
