Transition Workshop for New Families
The AISB Counselors will be hosting a workshop for all AISB families who have recently moved to Bucharest. The workshop will include information about how to support your child during a big transition, defining a third culture kid and what to expect from your child during this transition time. There will be time for parent discussions and questions during the workshop. This workshop may also be beneficial for families who arrived to Bucharest last school year and would like more information about supporting a transition.
Two sessions will be offered for this workshop:
September 9th | 8:30am in Community Rm. 13
September 12th | 4:30 pm in Community Rm. 13

Parent Discussion Groups
Please join the counselors for our first parent discussion groups of this year!
We will be running parent discussion groups for our Elementary parents on Sept 16th 1:30-2:30pm and for Early Childhood parents on Sept 19th 1:30-2:30pm in Community Room 13.
This month we will be discussing how we can help our children develop the ‘foundations’ upon which to build and improve independence, confidence and general well-being. Using the metaphor of a house, we will explore the skills/factors required for the ‘foundations’; which include sleep, nutrition and exercise/movement. We would also love your input on future topics so please come along. It’s a great opportunity to meet other parents in an informal and welcoming environment.
