It suggests offering gentle opportunities for social connection through activities and consistent peer interaction, while also helping children build the social skills they need to form and maintain friendships in a way that feels natural to them.

For many families, sleep problems begin before their child is in bed. It is not unusual for children to have nighttime worries or fears that stop them from falling asleep easily. Preschool and primary-aged children may use excuses to avoid going to bed, like needing to go to the toilet or wanting to talk about something. Older children and teens may lie awake at night for a range of reasons, such as being uncomfortable in their sleep environment or stressed about school or friendships. Sleep problems in children and teens can be behavioural, psychological or medical. Click on our St Josephs school TV to find out more on sleep
