Term 4 begins Tuesday, October 6th! 📚✏️

Back-to-school transitions after the September break can trigger a mix of excitement, anxiety, and big emotions for children (and parents!).

Remember: behavior is communication. If your child seems extra sensitive, clingy, or overwhelmed lead-up to Term 4, their nervous system is simply adjusting to another big shift.

Through safe, intentional play therapy, we help children navigate these exact transitions—building emotional regulation, resilience, and problem-solving skills along the way. 🧩💛

Wishing all our QIPT & BHT families and students a calm and connected start to Term 4!

☕️ Happy International Coffee Day! 🧠✨

Whether it’s a quiet morning flat white or a warm cup of herbal tea, take 5 minutes today to slow down, reflect, or journal. Small, mindful pauses in your day can work wonders for emotional regulation and burnout prevention.

How are you practicing a little self-care today? 💛
