The Loddon Children’s Health and Wellbeing Local is offering school holiday sessions as part of our Parent Program. The sessions are interactive and fun on topics related to mental health.

Sessions are one hour long, and open to the age groups noted below.  During the sessions, parents will work with their child on activities which will help you have conversations about your child’s wellbeing and offer some new ideas to help you both.

Each group is made up of 4-5 children; each child needs to be accompanied by their parent/carer during the session.
