Therapy doesn’t just happen in one-on-one sessions—group programs can be an incredibly effective way for children to build skills while making friends and having fun. Here’s why school holiday groups are so beneficial:
✅ Social Connection: Group settings offer natural opportunities to practise social communication.
✅ Motivation and Engagement: Games and activities feel like play, which helps children stay engaged.
✅ Skill Generalisation: Practising in different environments with peers helps children apply skills more broadly.
✅ Confidence Building: Success in group settings supports self-esteem and a sense of belonging.
✅ Consistent Progress: Groups help maintain therapy momentum over long breaks.
At our clinic, we offer a range of school holiday therapy groups, including social skills, fine motor, sensory, and communication-focused sessions. If you’d like to learn more or reserve a place, contact our team today—we’d love to support your child’s growth.
