Success Stories – Parents

Sydenham, Parent

Every session was useful in different ways, they all broke down barriers in one way or another. I have been educated and I’m well able to make informed decisions concerning the well being of my children

 Sydenham, Parent

I understand they will influence confidence in our children helping them to strive towards higher goals and achieve their best of course we need more sessions to improve the standard of relations and therefore the school will benefit overall

MORE, MORE, MORE PLEASE!

Participation in the group has helped with emotions and improving behaviour toward my children.  The group has made me understand a lot of different thing in life and the community and it is on going as our children are growing and changing.

Very good support for parents. I have learned from other parents the way they help their family. It has enabled us to be able to express our thoughts, experience and problem and support each other. It has made us feel a part of the school.

Sydenham, Parent

It has helped me to unlock certain cycles in my life and has made me realise that change is possible no matter what we as a family have been through

The meeting helped me to move forward towards a better and promising future. I learn how to put aside or overcome fear to achieve the promises

Sydenham, Parent

Over the past term I have been learning about me through various programmes which have helped me to develop emotionally and has enabled me to see more clearly the approach to take when dealing with challenges concerning my children and their school.I have thoroughly enjoyed listen to other parents’ experiences and have learned to explore other incentives, ideas and perspectives which has helped me to see different views and motives for responses and reactions.

This has helped me to make informed decisions as opposed to emotional ones.  This group is very positive and eye opening a valuable group that would benefit parent’s children and teachers.
