About the event
In 2015, 45000 children were found to be at risk of harm, in Australia. As educators we are an important source of safety and comfort for children who come from traumatic home environments. As awareness grows, the educational world’s interest in trauma informed practice also increases.
There are two types of trauma: simple and complex. In this full day session we will discuss brain development and the impact of (primarily complex) trauma on the developing brain. We will look at how trauma impacts behaviours, memory and relationships. Further to this we will explore trauma informed care, including mindful education.
Join Kate, a childhood trauma survivor herself, for a true insight in to the impact of complex trauma; and learn how you can be a healing hero for the children affected. Some of the topics covered are listed below.
Neurosequential development and functions of different regions of the brain.
