Seasons for Growth offers children and young people a safe space to come together, and share their experiences of change and loss.

It is a confidential program organised by Tegan Towler (Guidance Counsellor) and Kerry Donlan (Pastoral Chaplain), student companions.  

The program is not designed to counsel but assist young people to cope with some of life’s big issues, e.g. separation, divorce or the loss of a loved one. Many families experience such change.  The program is designed to cater for students after a period of time, at least 12 months has passed.

Another important point to consider is that for some children, they are quite resilient and coping very well without additional support opportunities.  The Seasons Program equips children with strategies to deal with the variety of emotions, caused by grief and loss.

Program delivery will occur at a set time each week for 8 weeks, each session is approximately 45 minutes in the Pastoral Chaplain’s room.  If you would like to know more and feel that your child/children would be interested in participating in our Seasons for Growth Program in Term 2, please contact me by email kdonlan1@hsstsv.catholic.edu.au
