Choices - Emotional Awareness and Self Defence Program for Primary and Secondary Schools

This program looks at mental self-defence and awareness for today’s school lifestyle.

This course is suitable for both Primary or Secondary aged students, with the course content being tailored to suit the age, level of understanding and maturity of the group.
