Secret Agent Society® (SAS) Group
Small Group Program for 8–12-year-olds
A fun approach to building lifelong skills
SAS is a small group program designed to help kids 8–12 years old to develop their emotional regulation and social skills. The program uses espionage themed games to keep children interested and excited, while they learn new skills in a fun way. The SAS program is an evidence-based program designed to help kids with ADHD, high functioning Autism, anger, anxiety and other social and emotional issues.
Our SAS program provides 9 weekly sessions of 1.25 – 1.5 hours each throughout the school term, facilitated by psychologists. There are also 3 parent sessions run alongside the program to help parents learn with their children, so they can support their child’s development and their secret missions. There is an initial parent interview with a SAS facilitator, and a follow up session with a facilitator 1-3 months after the 9-week group concludes, to see how the cadets are going.
Children learn to:
- Recognise emotions in themselves and others
- Regulate and express their feelings in more appropriate ways
- Talk and play with others better
- Solve friendship problems more easily
- Cope better with change and deal with bullying
