About this event
The beginning of a new school sets the tone for the months ahead and plays a
significant role in children’s academic and social/emotional success. After-school care programs
play a vital role in supporting the social, emotional, and academic development of school age
children. This workshop supports educators in building strong affective relationships with the
children in their care. We will discuss the importance of building trust and engagement while
creating a positive and inclusive after school care community. By implementing the strategies and
techniques in this workshop, educators will have the tools to start the year off feeling confident
and supported in their interactions with the children in their care. This workshop provides
strategies and techniques to foster meaningful relationships, support children and create a
community of learners in after school care.
