📢 Parent Workshop Reminder
Just a reminder that Kerrie Sellen from Restorative Journeys will be running a parent workshop on Wednesday 22 July from 5:45pm–7:00pm at St Joseph’s College.
This introductory session will explore restorative practices, fostering healthy behaviours, and building stronger relationships at home and in the community.
With Kerrie’s guidance, parents and carers will learn how simple changes to everyday conversations and interactions can lead to positive outcomes, stronger connections, and more effective ways of supporting young people.
We encourage all parents and carers to attend this valuable and practical workshop.
