Playworks is proud to be a partner of Active Schools and is committed to supporting schools in the network in their pursuit of safe and healthy play. As part of our collaboration with Active Schools, we are offering enrolled schools a 10% discount on our Power of Play workshop which is one of our most popular trainings.
Power of Play Workshop Overview
The Power of Play workshop introduces the importance of play and lays the foundation for creating a safe, healthy, and respectful environment for youth. Playworks trainers give you and your staff the introductory tools needed to create safe and inclusive play opportunities for all students. It also includes a discussion of the various barriers that youth face and how adults can help them navigate and overcome these challenges. Participants will walk away understanding how to select and initiate games that support the physical, social, and emotional development of their students.
