Who we are
Here at Helping Children Thrive Aotearoa we are focused on the wellbeing of all children and teenagers. Our goal is to help you promote positive mental health and improve their ability to learn. The Thrive Approach which is where our training model comes from is based on the latest neuroscience and psychology available which focuses on supporting the social and emotional development of all children.
We want the next generation of New Zealander's to be emotionally resilient and ready to engage with both life and learning. Our whole-school approach is proven to increase attendance, behaviour and attainment.
Learning is much easier when our children and teenagers feel safe and supported. Our training, tools and insights are proven - having been in place around the globe for over 25 years.
