Paint, Sip & Chat School Holiday Workshop

Does your daughter struggle with low confidence, managing stress, expressing her emotions or feeling comfortable in social situations?

Paint, Sip & Chat is more than an art activity. It is a creative wellbeing workshop designed to provide girls in Years 7–10 with a relaxed and supportive space to connect, express themselves and develop practical emotional skills.

Using painting and creative activities as a way to encourage conversation and self-expression, the session will focus on helping participants:

• Build confidence and self-esteem through creative expression and trying something new.
• Recognise and manage stress, including learning simple strategies they can use when feeling overwhelmed.
• Explore emotions and self-expression in a way that feels comfortable and less pressured than direct conversation.
• Develop positive coping strategies and identify healthy ways to respond to difficult feelings.
• Strengthen social connection through conversation, shared activities and interacting with other girls in a supportive environment.
• Practise mindfulness and relaxation, using art as an opportunity to slow down, focus on the present moment and unwind.

There is no artistic ability required. The focus isn't on creating the perfect painting—it's on using creativity as a tool for confidence, connection and emotional wellbeing.

Participants will enjoy painting, refreshments and guided conversation while being supported to explore strategies they can take with them beyond the session.

Paint. Connect. Express. Build confidence.
