Why do strong relationships matter so much in education and care settings? What happens in the brain when we feel safe, valued, and connected?

Join us for our upcoming Connections Network Event: The Neuroscience of Connection, where we’ll explore the fascinating science behind human relationships and discover how connection influences learning, behaviour, wellbeing, and engagement. Aligned to the 5 Roots of Quality Practice, this session will unpack how the brain responds to connection and stress, helping educators better understand the needs of children, families, and colleagues. Through practical strategies and reflective discussion, participants will gain valuable insights into creating environments where people can thrive.
As always, the event will also provide valuable opportunities to network with peers, share experiences, discuss current challenges, and exchange ideas with professionals from across the education and care sector. Whether you’re looking to strengthen relationships within your service, improve team culture, or better support children’s wellbeing, this session will provide practical takeaways grounded in neuroscience and everyday practice.
