Intended for primary school aged children who have lost a loved one to suicide, Serious Fun runs in each of the school holidays. Members of the Support After Suicide counselling team and trained volunteers facilitate these sessions. There is usually a theme relating to loss and grief followed by time to play and have fun together. Children find this to be an enjoyable time of sharing and connecting with others who have lost someone important to suicide.
This month’s theme explores the themes, Winter Warmers and Grief Nourishment. Alongside our counsellors Kristina and Colin, children will explore how winter and the colder weather affects them, and discuss what they can do to nourish themselves. Take a look at the flyer here.
