Kids At Max offer a range of school-based programs.
These programs are targeted towards the specific needs of the school community and can vary in length depending on the purpose, number of students and particular area being addressed.
Programs are tailored to the needs of the individual children involved, focusing on equipping them with the practical skills and strategies to further develop their ability to function better at school, as well as equipping teachers with the knowledge and skills to support the child in the classroom.
