The Authentic Child Weekly & Holiday workshops

Making childrens lives easier by planting the seeds early -for good mental wellness.

The AUTHENTIC Child is the brain child of child and family COUNSELLOR Nicole Neave. Over years of experience with children Nicole believes that she has hit upon a perfect recipe to teach young children to become emotionally intelligent-which follows through for the rest of their lives. We teach children to truly believe in their authentic,natural selves,to celebrate their differences and to recognize that they are meant to be exactly as they are and to relish in their uniqueness is the key to being heroes in their own lives. Our tutors do this through different fun mediums,including drama,speech and play.The children have so much fun that they dont realise that we are teaching them strong emotional intelligence! Our classes are divided into preschool age and primary aged children

A Gallery of Ghosts: Remembering Earth's Lost Creatures.

This is more than a list; it's a roll call of the departed. Each of these species once played a unique role in its ecosystem, from the top predators to the humblest rodents. Their stories are a poignant reminder of the fragility of life and the profound impact humanity can have on the natural world.

The Great Carnivores, Silenced:

Barbary Lion & Atlas Bear: The lions that fought gladiators in Rome and the only bear native to Africa, both vanished from the wild due to hunting and habitat loss.

Bali Tiger & Javan Tiger: Two of the three extinct tiger subspecies, hunted to extinction for sport and safety.

Tasmanian Tiger (Thylacine): A unique marsupial predator, relentlessly persecuted as a threat to livestock.

The Gentle Giants & Curious Specialists:

Steller's Sea Cow: A colossal, gentle relative of the manatee, discovered in the Bering Sea and hunted to extinction for its meat within just 27 years.

Western Black Rhinoceros & Caribbean Monk Seal: Victims of relentless hunting—the rhino for its horn, the seal for its blubber and oil.

Quagga: A uniquely patterned subspecies of plains zebra from South Africa, hunted for its hide and outcompeted by livestock.

The Island Endemics, Forever Gone:

Falkland Islands Wolf: A curious, tame fox-like canid with no fear of humans. It was the only land mammal on the islands and was wiped out for its fur.

Bramble Cay Melomys: The first mammal driven to extinction by modern anthropogenic climate change, its low-lying island home washed away by rising seas.

Guam Flying Fox & Toolache Wallaby: Island species with nowhere to retreat, succumbing to introduced species, hunting, and habitat destruction.

Their absence leaves a void in our world and a responsibility on our shoulders to protect what remains.

When a child’s emotional brain takes over, logic and reason switch off — and connection becomes the bridge back to calm.

These phrases don’t fix the feeling; they regulate the brain behind it.
Save this as part of your calm-down toolkit and share with anyone who supports children through big emotions.
