Educare parents, teachers and volunteers attended a 5 day intensive parent training programme this month. Early Years Services, a non-profit organisation, has facilitated this successful programme for many years. Group discussions covered topics about self-respect, self-care, self-love, nutrition, grief and loss, safety and protection, and domestic violence.
Parents were very keen to participate in the discussions and to learn more about child development and childrens’ rights. They were informed about local support networks such as social workers, safe houses and clinics that are available to help them become responsible parents and positive role models for their children.
On completion of the programme each participant received a certificate of attendance.
