We’re excited to announce that Holy Cross School will once again be offering the highly popular Circle of Security® Parenting™ program in 2025!

This relationship-based program is designed to support parents in building strong, secure connections with their children. Through the program, you will:

• Learn to understand your child’s emotional world by recognising and responding to their needs.
• Support your child in managing their emotions more effectively.
• Enhance their self-esteem and confidence through secure attachment.
• Gain insights into fostering a secure and trusting parent-child relationship.

Backed by decades of research, the Circle of Security® Parenting™ program provides practical tools to help parents navigate the challenges of raising children. Parenting can be deeply rewarding, but it also comes with its fair share of frustrations and uncertainties. Children often express their emotions through behaviour, and it’s not always easy to understand what they need. This program helps parents decode their child’s signals and respond in ways that promote security and emotional well-being.

Why Join?

Children who experience secure relationships with their caregivers are more likely to:

• Develop strong self-esteem and confidence
• Form positive relationships with parents, teachers, and peers
• Cope better with school learning demands
• Handle big emotions in a healthy way
• Build friendly and respectful friendships

Program Details

Four consecutive sessions (Each session builds on the last, so full attendance is required.)
Session Options:

• Term 2: Group 1 - Daytime sessions commencing at 9am
