Calling all early career educators and future teachers!

Teaching comes with incredible rewards — and real challenges, especially in your first years in the classroom. We're excited to offer our New Teacher Helpline on February 10, 2026, hosted virtually via Zoom so educators everywhere can join.

This interactive session will be shaped by your questions and needs, with a focus on:
✔️ Building strong relationships with students and colleagues
✔️ Classroom management strategies
✔️ Addressing conflict and bullying
✔️ Supporting your growth and confidence as a new educator

Who should attend:
• University students and pre-service teachers
• Educators in their first three years
• Anyone who supports early career educators

You can submit questions ahead of time or during the session, and a panel of experienced Restorative educators will offer practical guidance and encouragement.

We know the early years matter. Let us support you.

Restorative Practices offer an effective, relationship-based approach that can transform family conflicts and increase positive connections between family members. When we use restorative practices at home, we:

✅ Increase our children's emotional and social intelligence

✅ Support our children’s communication skills

✅ Cultivate positive relationships even when conflict arises.

Join us and learn simple techniques that can help manage sibling conflicts and conflicts between parents (or caregivers) and children.
