Parents and Carers
Free Autism Events
Hesley Group are back with their free autism events for 2018. Having listened to feedback from previous delegates, the team will be heading to Manchester in March, Newcastle in May and London in September.
The main topic for this year will be "help me to help myself". The parents' day will focus on "valuable coping skills" and the professionals day will also include an afternoon on "making sense of my self-injury".
Requests for places, as always, will be via their website: www.hesleygroup.co.uk around six weeks prior to the event dates.
Free Makaton Taster Session
We will be running a free Makaton Taster Session for parents/carers here at school.
This taster session is a brief introduction to Makaton. You will be given an insight into Makaton and who uses it, learn around 30 signs, and find out what further training there is available.
The session will be run by Peter Manning who is a regional Makaton Tutor and HLTA.
The session will have limited spaces so please call the office as soon as possible to book in.
The session is free and takes place on May 24th at 1.30 - 3.00.
