PARENTS AND KIDS TOGETHER (Pakt)
Parents and Kids Together (PaKT) is a fun, creative seven-week program for kids in primary school and their parents or carers.
You’ll work together on cool projects like building a family castle, a rocket ship, or even your own island paradise! All materials are recycled, easy to find, and fun to use.
No craft experience? No problem! Just come ready to get creative and maybe a little messy.
What you’ll do:
Strengthen your relationship with your family.
Build connections with others in your school community.
Develop communication and social skills.
Learn about staying safe through protective behaviours.
Boost your self-esteem and practice problem-solving.
Our group is all about celebrating strengths and strengthening family bonds. You’ll set goals, plan, and work together to create something amazing.
We’ve been running PaKT for 20 years and are here to support you in building positive relationships in your school community.
Ready to get creative and have fun with your family? Join us!
“PaKT was all about fun, friends, and craft! I did PaKT with my nan and we made a copy of my bedroom. We learned about our safety - and we got to spend some time together doing fun stuff.”
