Parenting has never been easy, and advice about how best to raise and support our children is not new. SEEN: The Film aims to help parents understand how their own experiences impact their approach to parenting. Through compelling interviews and storytelling, it highlights the importance of connection, vulnerability, and truly being seen and understood.
Join Inspire for a thought-provoking evening as we host a screening of SEEN: The Film. Acclaimed internationally, the film has toured across Australia, New Zealand, the UK and won Best Director at the Illuminate Film Festival in the USA.
This special event will feature a screening of the film, followed by a panel discussion with the College’s wellbeing team.
Offering hope and practical insights, this documentary is valuable for families, educators and communities invested in supporting young people’s wellbeing.
