24.01.2022 Have you heard about the Teddy Bear Hunt? People are placing teddy bears in their windows for children to spot as they walk past, to provide a bit of cheer. I now have my Misha Bear from the 1980 Russian Olympics peeking out of our front window. If you are joining in the fun why not post a photo either of the teddies you have in your window or ones you spot in the comments.

24.01.2022 What is your Incredible kid trying to tell to you? Our most popular workshop at Kalparrin is now offered as a full day workshop!

Why not join us at our full day workshop 'Understanding and Managing Difficult Behaviour' to explore this communication further?... When: Saturday 14th March 9.30am 3.30pm Where: Kalparrin Early Intervention Centre Cost: $198.00 (Discounts apply for Kalparrin families) Booking: www.trybooking.com/BGNSN Contact our Education and Training coordinator on 9435 8311 for more information!

22.01.2022 Join us and our guest speaker Tiffanee Cook at our AGM on Monday. Everyone has a plan, until they get punched in the face. Tiffanee Cook has learned this as a business woman, performance coach and boxer; from the comfort, predictability and safety provided by the corporate world, to the lessons and let-downs in and out of the boxing ring. Coming to the realisation that, in order to have one’s hand raised in triumph, adversity, discomfort and combat must be navigated. In th...e face of the messiness of life, do we fight or do we flee? Tiffanee speaks openly of her own personal experiences (good and bad) and how those experiences have enabled her to develop self-awareness, resilience, courage, independence and the skill to be able to maximise passion, possibilities and potential. She talks about getting knocked down (literally and metaphorically) and what it is that makes some of us get back up and some, stay down. Working in business, sport, high performance and personal development, Tiffanee explores a range of ideas, tools, skills, resources, philosophies and strategies to empower individuals, teams and organisations to improve everything from productivity, efficiency, culture and communication to physical, mental, emotional and social health.

06.01.2022 Dear Families, After careful consideration of the health of our families, the community and our staff, we have taken the decision to suspend face-to-face therapy services with immediate effect. This decision has not been taken lightly and will remain in place for the foreseeable future. ... In the coming days, as we transition all therapy to non face-to-face alternatives, we ask you to be patient and wait to be contacted by your therapist(s) to discuss how best to deliver an appropriate level of therapy to your child(ren). We will keep you informed as matters are clarified and put in place. During these difficult times, our thoughts are with our families, our incredible kids and our wonderful and talented staff. Best wishes, Bert CEO
