June 1: Creating Space to Connect, Grow and Belong
June is OUR screen free Living for children and teens Month!
In today’s digital world, screens are woven into lots of childhood and teenage life — from education and entertainment to friendships and self-expression. While technology offers many benefits, growing conversations around wellbeing, mental health and social connection have encouraged families to reflect on the role screens play in everyday routines.
Screen-free living is not about removing technology completely or creating unrealistic rules. Instead, it is about creating healthier balance, encouraging meaningful offline experiences and making space for creativity, rest and real-world connection.
Throughout this month, we will be sharing simple daily screen-free ideas and activities for children and teenagers designed to encourage imagination, movement, mindfulness and connection. From building dens and outdoor adventures to creative hobbies and phone-free routines, these activities aim to help families explore practical ways to reduce screen dependency in fun, accessible and inclusive ways.
As we explore screen-free living together, it is important to recognise that every child and teenager experiences the digital world differently. Our approach focuses on balance rather than judgement, encouraging young people to build healthy relationships with technology while making space for wellbeing, belonging and meaningful connection beyond the screen.

This interactive 60 minute Pride Month session uses the iconic series Pose as a launchpad to explore the radical roots, resilience, and cultural influence of queer and trans communities — especially Black and Latine voices from the ballroom scene.
Through games, storytelling, and creative reflection, participants will uncover how language, identity, and inclusion have evolved, and why terms like transsexual, queer, and Trans+ mean different things to different people.
The session invites teams to move beyond corporate checkboxes and into a deeper, more joyful, and more respectful understanding of LGBTQ+ identities — with a few voguing vibes along the way.
