Join us in Launceston on May 27th for a transformative one-day training experience in Restorative Practices with Kerrie Sellen. Kerrie’s unique, in-depth restorative framework redefines how we understand and manage relationships and conflict, making this not your typical restorative practices training. Her approach goes beyond traditional methods by integrating insights into the biology behind relationships, language, conflict, and our responses to them.

In this foundational training, you’ll learn why “conflict is normal, but combat is optional” and how understanding this, while using Kerrie’s framework, helps prevent harm, foster growth, and build lasting connections. Kerrie’s explicit restorative framework equips you with practical tools to repair, build, and maintain strong, connected relationships and communities, both personally and professionally. These actionable tools will empower you to start creating positive change from Day 1.
