What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.”

– Jane Goodall

An Awedinary® Experience

Awedinary experiences create calmer, more connected spaces for our children and for us, in our schools and in our homes.

Created by a teacher and a parent, for teachers and parents.

The Noun & The Verb

(So sorry, you can take the teacher out of the classroom, but…)

The Noun - The wonder of everyday things

For Schools

The Awedinary® Experience in schools begins with a simple shift:

Teaching children (and us) to notice what’s already there and wonder about everyday things.

Because when we experience awe daily, even micro moments, great things happen:

Increased focus and learning readiness. When children feel curious, they lean in. (Lean in!)

Calmed nervous systems and less rumination. (At last!)

Increased patience and reduced self-focus, we are talking less reactive and more reflective. (Err, yes please.)

Expanded perspective and fuel for creativity, bringing energy into teaching and learning. (Here for that.)

Organic links grow between school and home. When learning is shared between school and home through curious conversations magic happens. (Abracadabra!)

What This Looks Like

Awedinary® Author Visit
An interactive, curiosity-first session using my book Awedinary: The wonder of Everyday Things to help children (and adults) explore the extraordinary in their everyday ordinary.

Learning how to ask and explore brilliant questions that bring learning to life, these whole class or whole school sessions inspire children and adults alike to wonder about things that ordinarily pass them by unlocking curiosity, creativity and playfulness at school, and later on at home.

The Awedinary® Add In

For schools ready to go further.

We work together to gently infuse your existing curriculum (and the moments in-between) with curious questions that lend themselves to awefilled learning across topics - not a new scheme, not another initiative, simply the smallest of shifts that:

Increase engagement

Strengthen wellbeing

Deepen thinking

Build connection

Make learning fun in the moment and meaningful for the future.

No overhaul.
No extra workload.
Just simple intentional tweaks that create the moments that change how learning feels for everyone.

This Is For You If :

  • Your pupils are compliant, but not curious.

  • Staff are working hard but feel the joy slipping.

  • Wellbeing initiatives feel separate from learning.

  • You want a shared language that connects classrooms and families.

  • You believe education should feel meaningful, not just measurable.

“Kate combines purposeful optimism with exceptional precision. She listens deeply, surfaces the real tension, and asks the kind of questions that unlock clarity and momentum.

The Verb - The extraordinariness of everyday doing

For educators & parents

This is where the philosophy becomes the practise. Where What If? meets Awedinary® and we begin with a question most of us are too busy to stop and ask:

What if the way things are isn't just hard, and ‘is what it is’, what if it's actually extraordinary that we've all accepted this as ordinary?

Because when you stop long enough to really look at the treadmill you're on, something shifts.. And from there, small but mighty changes become not just possible, they become doable.

This is about autonomy, agency and freedom in what your work and life actually feel like. Not burning it all down. Not a reinvention.

Just a fresh look at what's within your control, and what changes when you use it.

Because when educators and parents reconnect with what matters, great things happen:

  • A slower nervous system and less mental noise. (At last.)

  • Conversations with your children that go beyond logistics. (The ones you've been meaning to have.)

  • A renewed sense of agency — small levers, real change. (You're closer than you think.)

  • More presence in the moments that are already there. (They're happening. You just need a bit of room to notice them.)

  • The quiet confidence that you don't have to choose between being good at your job and being present for your kids. (You don't.)

What if it isn’t about just doing less, but is about more autonomy, agency and freedom in what your work and life feel like?

“Working with Kate has been such a wonderful experience, it's just incredible what comes to the forefront, that I didn't even know was in my head! It has helped provide clarity and focus for what I want and has given me the tools to use for this.”

- Dr Sophie Newton, GP, Health Information Educator, Mum of Three

The Awedinary® Hour

One hour. One thing. Real clarity.

Sometimes you don't need a programme. You just need to get out of your own way on something specific.

This is a single, focused session built around whatever is keeping you stuck right now: a decision, a pattern, a nagging feeling you haven't quite found the words for yet.

Using a thoughtful, practical approach grounded in decades of teaching, coaching and parenting insight, we find the thread and pull on it together.

You leave with clarity, a way forward, and the relief of finally having said it out loud.

The Awedinary® Six

Six sessions. A genuine shift.

This is for you if a single conversation won't cut it, because the thing that needs to change isn't one decision, it's a whole way of doing.

Over six one-to-one sessions, we slow the treadmill down long enough to really look at what your running through.

We identify what's within your control, build the language and tools to use it, and create a way forward that fits the life you already have.

No overhaul. No extra pressure. Just a steady, honest process that leaves you feeling lighter, clearer and genuinely more in control.

  • Find clarity on what's keeping you stuck and how you want to move forward

  • Build practical tools that reduce the mental load and boost your sense of agency

  • Reconnect with what matters, at work, at home, and in between

  • Leave with a renewed sense of purpose that doesn't depend on ‘just getting to the next holiday.’

The Awedinary® Group

Six sessions. Shared experience. Lasting change.

There is something quietly powerful about being in a room, virtual or in real life, with other people who just get it. Who are the same kind of tired. The same kind of hopeful and the same kind of ready for things to feel different.

Over six sessions across twelve weeks, this small group experience combines the intimacy of one-to-one work with the momentum that only comes from community.

We use the Awedinary® philosophy to look honestly at what has become normalised and the power of What If? to find, together, what is genuinely within our control to change.

Shared support. Real insight. Lasting change.

Got a group? (Maximum 6 participants — small by design.)
