Workshops for Parents, Carers & Educators
About the Workshops
Presented by AHPRA registered Occupational Therapists with Avanti Therapy Services, these workshops are designed to support parents, carers and educators in understanding the sensory world of children.
Our workshops are tailored to the specific audience, whether that be parents, carers, educators, support workers or community groups. The workshop content, examples and strategies are all tailored and adapted to ensure they are relevant, practical and meaningful for your role and setting.
The workshops will develop a deeper understanding of how children experience their environment and how sensory processing influences behaviour, emotions and learning. These workshops are practical, neuro-affirming and focused on real strategies that can be used in everyday life.
