Learning Keys

Term 4…a time of preparation and change. The Learning Keys clinic has had some changes as well. We have said goodbye to Sarah (the friendly face who helped the clinic run smoothly). We welcome Nat who has stepped into the administration role with great ease. We also are expanding our psychology team. Planning for 2026 is underway!

📚Free Autism Webinar: How We Talk About It

Ever feel unsure about the 'right' way to talk about autism?

Join Belongside Families for this free webinar with me. We’ll unpack how language shapes our understanding of autism and why the words we choose matter.

In this 45-minute session, we’ll explore::

🔸 The shift from person-first to identity-first language
🔸What ‘neuro-affirming’ actually means
🔸Why functioning labels don’t tell the whole story
🔸Reframing traditional advice with a fresh, neuro-affirming view

It's a little bit of education, a little bit of community, and a fresh perspective that will help guide parents and caregivers in understanding current Autism narratives with a neuroaffirming lens. It's ideal for those people who are newer to the paradigm and would like to be engaged in these conversations.

Join me!

🗓 Thu, 11 Sep, 8:00pm AEST
📍 Online via Zoom (and yes, recordings will be sent out!)

Em neurowild_ has an amazing skill for translating complex concepts into accessible illustrations.

If your child has an assessment appointment coming up with a psychologist (or another professional), this may help your conversations 😊

We are halfway through the learning year. Now is a good time to do a quick check-in.

What is working well this year?

Is there anything that needs to be flagged or better understood about a student’s progress?

What extra supports (if any) are needed to finish this year positively?
