Training workshops on promoting mental well-being through outdoor land/nature play and creative activities

English Version Only

We are pleased to share about the upcoming professional training opportunity on land/nature play for those working with children and young people. A renowned trainer: Kate Macairt will be conducting a series of workshops, and you are encouraged to participate to explore more creative training with a focus on mental well-being in different settings.

The training details are as follows:

2-Day Training in Landplay Therapy (21st & 22nd November 2024) (10am to 4pm)
This two-day training will build participants' knowledge and skills to integrate nature connection into their therapeutic practice. It will explore related theories on neuroscience, ecopsychology, and developmental play.

1-Day Train-the-Trainer Workshop in Landplay Therapy (20th November 2024) (10am to 4pm)
This workshop is designed for therapists who wish to train others in Landplay Therapy.

2-Day Training in AWE and WONDER (27th & 28th November 2024) (10am to 4pm)
This training will provide participants with an understanding of the significance of the creative instinct and its impact on child mental well-being. Participants will receive hands-on "tools" to use in the classroom and at home, suitable for all children, including those with special educational needs. The aim is to deepen self-understanding, promote self-acceptance and self-worth, and inspire children to be curious, which is crucial for the development of the scientific and creative mind.

1-Day Train-the-Trainer Workshop in AWE and WONDER (25th November 2024) (10am to 4pm)
This workshop is designed for participants who want to train others in AWE and WONDER.

Research interests:
Andy’s primary research interest lies on the motor learning and impact of physical activity on psychological, cognitive and physical well-being in children with autism spectrum disorder.  He is also interested in motor development and the effect of free-play on overall quality of life in typically developing children. He recently initiates a new research project on the investigation of free-play participation among school-aged children. His research goal is to propose a lighthouse parenting strategy as a reasonable approach to build success among children.
