Therapeutic Play
In primary schools, CEWB utilises Play Therapy to help children express their emotions and work through complex issues. Play is a natural medium through which children
communicate, and our therapeutic play sessions are designed to provide a safe and
supportive environment where they can explore their feelings and experiences.
Through Therapeutic Play, children can:
-
Feel safe and understood
-
Develop healthy coping mechanisms
-
Improve their self-esteem and confidence
-
Enhance their social skills
-
Achieve better emotional regulation
Our goal is to help children enjoy and thrive in their school environment, feel more positive, and make valuable contributions to their lives and learning.
