Next week we will have Lex Mawson who is a Community Relationships Coordinator from the Parenting Place in to speak with our students about changes in puberty and the many challenges that emerging adolescents may face (including social media use). Lex is a relatable and dynamic presenter. This session will take place on Thursday, 31st October. If you wish your child not to participate, please inform your child’s teacher. The night before, on Wednesday, 30th October at 7.00pm, Lex will also run a meeting for Parents and Kids. The purpose of the meeting is to inform parents about emerging adolescents and to encourage you to have the confidence to have meaningful conversations with your children.
