Seasons for Growth is an educational programme which aims to build the resilience of children and young people who are dealing with significant loss or change

The death of a loved one, parental divorce or separation, moving to a new house or school… big changes like these can cause confronting and confusing emotions. Seasons for Growth helps children and young people to develop the language needed to express their feelings, and gives them a safe place to talk about them.

Seasons for Growth was designed with reference to developmental psychology, ensuring that activities are appropriate and relevant to the age and stage of participants. It has been adapted to a learning framework to be an educational programme. It is not therapy, but it is therapeutic.

In Giffnock Primary we have trained companions who can run small groups for children and a separate one for adults who wish to find out how to best support their child.

If you are interested in this programme for either yourself or your child (or both) please contact us at the school.
