School Start

Help Your Child to Thrive

Essential reading for any parent wanting to help their child develop the emotional skills necessary for school success! Studies increasingly show that children who have good emotional skills are far better equipped to meet the challenges they will face at school. Among the issues addressed in 'School Start' are helping your children to deal with anxiety, initiating new friendships and coping when things dont always go to plan, accepting people have different strengths and weaknesses and that they wont always be the best (or the worst) at things, dealing with teasing and bullying, and developing resilience. Lynn Jenkins is a registered clinical psychologist and co-owner of the Life Matters psychology practice in Newcastle, NSW. Lynn is passionate about assisting women to feel confident in their ability to raise healthy, happy children. Lynns first book with Exisle was the highly regarded 'Best Start'.
