It is suitable for children who are aged 7 – 12 years old; are adjusting to some of the difficulties of separation; have been told or will shortly be told of their parents’ separation or who have been impacted by parental conflict. Children have the opportunity to;

• explore grief and loss experienced in response to family separation
• identify safe coping strategies for their own self-care
• process their experiences of living in two houses
• identify the differences between child and adult responsibilities and acknowledge the rights of being a child
• celebrate their learnings and progress throughout the program.

A parent's information session runs at the same time as the first group session. The session helps parents to understand what Owl Kids is about, what the children might be bringing home, and how each parent can support them.

An alternate session offers the other parent the opportunity to attend at a different time in the same week.

The final session will provide an opportunity for the children to be a part of a presentation individually or as part of a group. 

Before children can enrol in the program written parental consent is required from both parents.  Parents and children are each required to attend separate intake sessions before enrolments can be finalised. We will email both parents with the parental consent forms on completion of registration, if you are registering for your child we encourage you to talk with your co-parent about the program.
