Services / Rock & Water

Rock and water is a 7 week program that runs for boys aged 9-12 years of age. This program has been established to help boys develop body awareness, emotional awareness and self awareness leading to better social skills and communication. A physical learning program Rock and Water was developed by Freerk Ykema, a teacher and advocate for boys education from the Netherlands.

The program has a preventative focus and equips boys with a way to think through actions, particularly when under pressure.

Currently the program is held twice yearly at our offices and run regularly in local primary schools. To secure your place, please call our office to be placed on the waitlist.
