Proudly sharing this wonderful milestone from Friday.

On Friday, Strong Beginnings attended South Rock State School Brain Building Showcase.

Throughout the term, the wonderful team from Taking Behaviour, Sharon and Debbie, have been working alongside Prep and Year 1 students and teachers to explore the different parts of the brain and develop practical strategies for self-regulation in the classroom.

On Friday, parents were invited into the school to see the learning in action. With more than 30 parents joining us throughout the day, there were so many special moments as families experienced firsthand the incredible work their children have been doing.

Seeing parents witness the impact of brain-building approaches in action was incredibly powerful. We also received fantastic feedback from teachers, who shared the positive difference these strategies have made in their classrooms.

A huge thank you to everyone involved for making the showcase such a meaningful celebration of learning, growth and connection. We can't wait to see these brain-building skills continue to flourish!
