THE TALK
Join us to welcome Julie Lam, Founder & Director, and Amy Punton, Lead Teacher of Highgate House School to discuss how you and your partner can help your child build long-lasting social skills and a passion for life-long learning. Our experienced educators will share with you their knowledge to help your child develop his/her intrinsic motivation to learn, strengthen his/her resilience muscle, and cope with failure and set backs.

Our speakers have over 45 years of experience in the field of early childhood education between them and will provide some simple yet crucial advice. Join us on the 17 September, to discover ways to support your child to develop social confidence and relationship forming skills (including dealing with rejection or unkindness), and to nurture lateral thinking and problem solving.
