One-off or series workshops to grow capability around early language
Talking Matters wants everyone in Aotearoa to play a part in building Language Rich Environments (LRE) for the tamariki in their world - at home, at work, with extended whānau, in the community.
Talking Matters workshops are designed to expand the knowledge and confidence of kaiako, whānau supporters and whānau around rich, early language. We also offer practical strategies and invite participants to try them out and find the actions that are meaningful and doable for them.
After a recent series of one-off workshops for kaiako, in towns across Te Tai Tokerau,
100% of participants said the workshop was relevant to their practice
96% found the content easy to understand
94% said they could use what they learned in practice, straight away
94% said they would share what they learned with colleagues and whānau
Workshops are a great tool on our mission to get everyone talking with babies and toddlers.
They are effective as single events; but sometimes lead to a more intensive engagement with our other delivery models.
