Monday 2 June: Daniel Principe – Talk to parents and carers

LAST CHANCE TO RESERVE YOUR SPOT!

 

We are excited to welcome youth advocate and educator Daniel Principe back to the College on Monday 2 June.  Following a day engaging with our students, alongside Emma Tabacaru, through the workshop ‘Championing young people in a digital world’, Daniel will also speak to parents and carers in the evening, where he will unpack what the latest academic research reveals about how current social and cultural forces are affecting young people’s wellbeing and their relationships. Daniel will discuss what really matters to young people, and provide clarity and tools to help young people analyse and challenge the culture around them.

 

We strongly encourage you to come and hear from the person who will have been working with your children that day - this could also prompt important conversations at home around building respectful and empathetic relationships into adulthood. 

 

Use the link below to reserve your free space. Bookings will close 9.00am on Monday 2 June.
