ADD TO YOUR PARENTING SKILLS WITH THIS POSITIVE DISCIPLINE PHASE 1 WORKSHOP with Natasha Ålund and Maria Teresa "Tess" Guyo
Saturday 12th April 2025, 9:30 am – 4:00 pm at Johannesgatan 18, 111 38 Stockholm.
Though Positive Discipline (PD) is a way of interacting for all human beings regardless of their age, it has particular value in supporting learning in school – and also in parenting in the home. That’s why SIS adopted PD as part of its approach to teaching, and why we became an accredited Positive Discipline Lab School.
You can discover more about the philosophy of Positive Discipline on the official website.
Parents will explore their family’s challenges and goals, gain a general knowledge of Adlerian Psychology, and learn the principles behind PD. Together, you will find ways to build cooperation and mutual respect with your child using Kind and Firm Parenting. Spaces are limited but we require a minimum of 10 sign ups for the workshop to proceed. So we encourage you to register as soon as possible to avoid missing out. If both parent/guardian wish to attend, please register separately.
No child supervision will be available as this is for parents and guardians only.
This is a 7 hour workshop, with an hour dedicated to lunch. Please bring a packed lunch or have a plan for picking up a quick lunch within an hour.
