This workshop will focus on the grieving school aged child. The presenter will discuss reactions to significant loss at different ages and stages of development and appropriate interventions for teachers and staff to make with grieving children. Plenty of time will be allowed for discussion of experiences of participants in their classrooms with children who have experienced loss and the issues which arose in these cases.
