SEEN The Film - Parent Viewing
Tuesday 2 September, 6pm to 7.30pm
Join us for a viewing of the critically acclaimed film - SEEN. This event will be held at the Bill and Marjorie Oats Theatre on the Commercial Road Campus and is suitable for parents of all year levels.
SEEN is a groundbreaking feature-length documentary that not only explores the transformative power of personal healing for parents but also delves into the scientifically supported effects of such healing on parenting and its impact on child brain development. SEEN will encourage parents to consider how their own past may be influencing their children. Through the unfiltered and authentic narratives of real parents, the film reveals the remarkable potential of addressing trauma and attachment styles of parents and their children.
This event is suitable for parents and guardians, but is not suitable for children.please note this is a ticketed event. Book your ticket here, tickets are $15pp.
For more information please contact Emma Gilligan - Events and Communications Coordinator.
